MothPrevention.com (team pictured right) draws on Adam and Jon’s combined expertise in online retail and business development, and aims to meet a growing need for prevention and treatment of moth infestation and damage.
Early signs indicate that there is a significant market for their products, with estimates that over one million households in the UK have suffered from moth damage. A recent feature earlier this year about moth prevention on the BBC’s The One Show, and several related discussions on BBC Radio 2 over the past year, highlight just how widespread the problem has become.
Maiden Newton residents Adam and Jon made a conscious decision to set up their business close to home, reducing travel and commuting time, to draw on local expertise and stay within their community to build the business.
“With good phone, broadband and delivery connections you can set up online businesses almost anywhere.” comments Jon, “And working near to home and using other local business services gives a feel-good factor that is hard to beat.”
Adam is pleased to announce that as of this week, the business has upgraded to International Deliveries to Europe (previously UK only) due to the already increasing demand for their products, and their first overseas order has just gone out to Sweden.
