Richard Reed is well known as the co-founder of innocent drinks and is one of the UK's most commercially successful entrepreneurs. His enterprise, JamJar Investments provides entrepreneurs with capital investment and consultancy all born from his experience making innocent a huge commercial success story.
"A Start-Up Champion"
Richard began on the road to business success washing windows at the age of 8. He also had a summer job picking up dog biscuits in a pet factory. It was at Cambridge University he first met his future business partners. After a stint in the advertising world he began selling his health drinks at music events. The brand caught the ethical mood of the late 90's for healthier life-styles. Following investment from an American source the brand grew rapidly with take up by McDonalds and distribution in major retailers. The smoothie drinks brand was sold to Coca Cola in 2013 for $500m.
