A business autobiography from Duncan Bannatyne, one of the stars of BBC's Dragons' Den.
Born in Clydebank, Scotland, Duncan Bannatyne is best known as one
of the stars of BBC entrepreneurship programme Dragons' Den. His
own business career began in his twenties, when he bought an ice
cream van for e450. He soon expanded by buying more vans and
eventually sold the business for e28,000, founding a chain of care
homes instead. Quality Care Homes subsequently sold for e26 million
in 1997 and another business, children's nursery chain Just
Learning, sold for e22 million. He has since built the well-known
Bannatyne's Health Clubs chain, as well as investing in bars,
hotels and property.
He has been honoured with the Order of the British Empire for his
contributions to charity and is heavily involved with Comic Relief
and UNICEF.
