Andrew co-founded BusinessesForSale.com back in the late 1990’s, which given the pace of change since then very much feels like the last century. The idea then, as it is now, was to create the main digital platform to bring together buyers and sellers of businesses and franchises globally. Driven by a wider ambition of helping unleash the entrepreneurs’ spirit, Andrew has an unrequited desire to fulfil the potential of anybody wanting to be in business for oneself. Andrew built the first version of the site, having learned to program from scratch in the bedroom while an arts student in Brighton. He is still a keen follower of web technologies and how best they can be used to service BusinessesForSale.com users more effectively.
