CHARLES TYRWHITT FOUNDER: The uni bedroom business that now does £400 million in sales | Nick Wheeler
About this episode
Nick Wheeler shares his journey of building Charles Tyrwhitt into a £400 million global brand, discussing resilience and key business lessons.
Nick Wheeler founded Charles Tyrwhitt with just £99 and a Morris Minor with a hole rusted through the floor (and zero understanding of how you make a shirt!).
