Business Story

Why this business was started

Hot Water Bottles is a necessity during the colder seasons for those that are conscious about using electricity as well as those experiencing lower back pains and more so in particular towards Women who experience discomfort periodically. However, most hot water bottles are made out of latex gives off an unpleasant odour when filled with hot water and the products don't really last long. Upon searching for an odourless hot water bottle I realised that most of the products were overseas and there was a significant delay in having them shipped over. Continuing my search I identified that there wasn't any local providers or distributors that sold quality odourless hot water bottles. Further research has enabled me to find the brand Fashy who manufactured high quality thermoplastic odourless hot water bottles and that's when I pursued in filling the gap in the market.

The reason of selling this business

Selling the business due to a number of reasons: - I've found a passion to start more small businesses from the ground up - Don't have the time nor the resources to continue this business - I could've shut it down but I don't want the Australian market to lose out on the continued local offering
