Getting into business: Starting out
There鈥檚 so much to think about when you start a business. Company founders from Japan, Switzerland and Ghana explain what it鈥檚 been like for them.
Starting a business is never easy, but in the last few years there鈥檚 been more than usual to deal with. Many would assume it's not been a great time to start trading but we speak to three business owners who did just that.
Tina Kayoma is the co-founder of Project of Japan in Kyoto. A business that sells products made by Japanese crafts people across the world. She opened her first shop last year.
Maria Jose Hernadez is in Switzerland where she runs a confectionary business called El Caramelo and Lisa Nielson is in Ghana where she runs Tiny Reusers, a business that sells second hand baby items.
They come together in this episode to explain what it's been like setting up a business where they live. They also discuss the good and bad moments they've had and give their tips for anyone else looking to start a business.
