 Do
you think it is possible for a six-year-old
girl to run a business? Well, running
a business is not easy even for the professional businessmen.
Don't be surprised when you meet a successful young businesswoman
in Wales.
A 6-year-old girl named Mollie Price just opened her new candy store there! What’s more
surprising is that it is
her third store!
Mollie is the youngest shop owner in the United Kingdom.
She has her own chain of candy stores called
“Mollie’s.” Recently, she opened her
third sweet shop in Wales. The
candy store specializes in a variety of traditional British sweets
and American candy.
 Every
item in the store is carefully chosen by the young
owner. Every Sunday, she gets up at 5 am to go to her wholesale suppliers in Birmingham to
restock. This is not all.
Mollie is a young girl, but she has an amazing business brain. She
has a number of clever business solutions to sell more candy.
For example, she came up with the idea of a temperature chart on the
wall. When the weather is
cold, she sells her ice creams cheaper than when it’s hot
outside. Also, she made two large tin soldiers at the entrance of her shop to guard her store. She calls
them Alfie and George after her two brothers.
 Mollie has
plans to expand her candy empire. Currently, her mother is
helping her run the stores. But one day, Mollie will run the stores
herself without the help of her mother. In the mean time, she will
help the stores improve and expand with her
innovative ideas.
“Children have the best ideas. I tell my mom what I think and she
always says I have good ideas,” says the little girl with a big smile.
“It’s just that I know what other children like. This is why my shops
are very popular amongst children.”
Isn’t the young businesswoman amazing? Let’s hope she will open new
stores in Korea, too! |
