At age 11, Moziah Bridges took to Shark Tank to present his custom idea. His fashionable, custom, “Mo’s Bows” was a hit with the sharks where they offered him deals for his company. However, after advice given by Daymond John, Moziah ultimately decided to decline the deals to keep full ownership of his company.
Luckily for Mo, that was one of the best decisions in his youthful life. Now 15, Mo’s Bows has landed an agreement that will launch his company to a new level. The NBA has partnered with Mo’s Bows to allow designing of custom ties complete with NBA team branding and logos. The NBA will gain a special area in merchandising to add to their empire of sports apparel. For the fans who wish to sport their team in style, Mo’s Bows will provide.
This deal is huge for Bridges and his company. With NBA apparel always growing each season, Mo’s company is sure to follow suit; pun intended. The NBA is very selective with their deals with other companies, and for Mo to land a partnership at 15 years of age is a huge accomplishment.
Through the inspiring nature of Moziah and his smart and supportive mom, Mo’s Bows hopes to become a household name. And with this deal, it is likely it will become so soon.
I’ve been a big fan of Moziah Bridges since I learned about him a couple months ago, and it is awesome to see him even further expanding his already very successful company. It is great to see him partner with the NBA and push himself into the realm of professional sports apparel, which when he first started he probably never dreamed of doing.
It’s interesting to see someone so young be willing to present their idea in front of a brutal panel like shark tank’s. This seems like a peculiar product to pitch as well but his courage and drive are awesome.
This is awesome to see someone so young not allow their age to slow them down from being successful. The NBA is extremely lucrative so I am sure that after accepting a partnership with them, that Mo is set for life.
What a great idea! I never thought of something like bowties as being innovative, but the NBA partnering up will certainly make it even more of a niche market. I love stories of young entrepreneurs such as this. Great article!
It is amazing how he went for something at age eleven! Moziah’s wisdom, especially concerning business ideas, is so inspiring and something that all young entrepreneurs need more of. Nice post!
