Pupils start their own furniture business
Dec 15th, 2009 by Charles
At a school in Deeside, Scotland senior pupils have been inspired to embark upon their own business venture, designing and building garden furniture. The company called Benchmark, was formed after pupils saw the chairs being built by the technical department at the Aboyne Academy.
The handmade garden chairs which have already received a great deal of interest are selling for between £59.99 and £64.99 via the Young Enterprise scheme. The pupil’s company has all the roles you would expect to find in a regular business, a managing director, a financial director and sales and marketing staff and all profits are going to company shareholders, which include the school itself and members of the company.
