Show Notes

 Faye Whitley talks to Ben Hartley about her start-up journey founding Beevive. Initially trained in fashion, and with extensive experience in design and production management, Faye set up Beevive after a chance encounter out in the beautiful Devon countryside.

Beevive is a small company based in the South West that set about creating a series of products based around helping the bee population and spreading the word about their importance to the fragile environmental ecosystem. The company currently has seven employees creating products, such as their bee survival kit, as well as opportunities to engage with schools and global organizations such as the World Wildlife Fund.

It's another chance to hear more about the highs and lows of an interesting business founder's journey.
