Eco-friendly business a triumph of entrepreneurial spirit of owner
A city entrepreneur said he hopes he can inspire other people to start their own businesses.
Callum Bayley has created a business supplying cafes and takeaways with eco-friendly plastic-free cups, napkins, burger boxes and other products, all made from sugar cane, cardboard and bamboo.
The 30-year-old from Finchfield in Wolverhampton has also supplied universities with his products from Made Not to Last, as well as celebrity chefs, BBC studios, the Red Cross and even venues hosting the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
It also started for Callum in 2021 during the Covid-19 pandemic when he started the business, having been inspired to do it after working at a horse racing event in Cheltenham and seeing the amount of rubbish left over.
He said: "All of the litter at the end of the day at the festival I was working at was plastic, so I thought it would be so much better to try and sell eco-friendly stuff.
