Moziah Bridges has always prided himself on being fashion forward. He has always had interest in the fashion world and loved being in on all the new trends. He started his unique, handmade bowtie company because he was having difficulties finding ties that were fashionable for him so instead of searching and searching, he decided to create his own with the help of his mom and grandma. He appeared on Shark Tank in 2015 and got an offer from the one and only Daymond John, the Shark that Mo really looked up to. Mo’s business is unique because he himself didn’t produce the bowties, but he used family, like his grandma, to make them while he was at school and then he did the shipping when he got back. He is driven by the constant change in fashion and always wants to be ahead of the trends. Mo demonstrates great entrepreneurial traits like delegation and not letting a problem hold him back. He has been featured in numerous magazines and on TV shows for his booming business that is succeeding while he isn’t even 18 yet. I like how he used his resources like his family in order to create his business and didn’t take on more than he could handle.
Getting an offer from someone that Mo looked up to is amazing. The idea for his company is so unique, turning something that he struggled with into his passion! Playing it smart and only taking on what he could handle is very smart and will help him succeed.
Staying on top of the fashion industry is very difficult, so to see someone new to the industry do so well is great!
