At the age of 9 Moziah Bridges recognized that he needed a fashion that fit his personality for the optimal sharpness. As he looked for different styles of bow ties he couldn’t find a style that fit him. So, at the age of 9 he and his grandmother’s started making bow ties in her kitchen.
So in 2013 his business took a turn for the better, he appeared on the”The Steve Harvey Show” and then shorty after he was on shark tank pitching his business to some of the most powerful investors in the world. So from that point on his business has only seen success. He debuted on Time magazine’s 30 most influence teens at age thirteen in 2015.
In 2017 he signed a licensing contract with the NBA (National Basketball Association), but this plans and or goals for this future are unknown. It will be very interested to see where this opportunity could possibly his life and business.
This young entrepreneur has some unique challenges as a young business man. One of the most difficult things is finding a adequate balance in his busy life and work, specifically since Bridges is a sophomore in high school. “So far, it’s been kind of hard, but I still do it,” he says
So, at the age of 12 years old Moziah Bridges was the CEO of a $150,000 dollar business, and not even a teenager yet. In 2018 alone he sold more than $800,000 worth of his bow tie products.
What a young king. It’s incredible to see someone so motivated and so successful at such a young age. Not even a teenager yet! He’ll be flexing on all of his friends for years. Great article, Jansen.
This kid is so cute! I remember watching him on Shark Tank a few years ago. It’s awesome to see how well he is doing.
Wow, that’s super neat. Amazing how young he started and how well his business is doing. Very inspirational.
This is pretty incredible. I can’t fathom how one person so young could handle all of that responsibility. The fact that this 12 year old kid is making more money than me, makes me strive to work harder.
Crazy to see such a young kid create something so big, and to continue to grow his own company to something bigger. These are the kind of stories that are inspiring, because if someone so young can do it, why can’t I? Great post.
Very, very cool story. Good for that kid for finding what he loves at such an early age, and making such an impressive business out of that. He has to be one of the youngest entrepreneurs that I have ever seen. I am excited to see what he does next, especially with the NBA partnership. Nice Article.

Wow! That’s really amazing! What kinds of bow ties does he sell and why are they such a hit?
He’s pretty young as well to be a sophomore in high school, I wonder if he ended up skipping a grade at some point in his life. I like that his story included his grandmother who was helping him through his process, because I think it’s so vital to have an adult (at that age) who is there to support children and their ideas. Without adults championing these kids, there’s no telling if the brilliant businesses would have been a success.
