Small businesses are the backbone of New Zealand, and one of the country’s newest ventures on the market is the brainchild of an actual child.
Twelve-year-old Auckland boy Antoni Mackenzie comes from a family of problem-solvers - his dad, mum and sister all have businesses.
So, when faced with the familiar sight of frayed cables, Antoni said: “I wanted to do it to be like everyone else.”
His research led him to heat shrink cable sleeves as a solution.
“I did some experimenting with tonnes of different things and I found that this was the best option,” Antoni said.
Now, he’s running his own business Your Cable Repair .
“My dad helped me with some of the website stuff but all the other stuff - it's all pretty much me.”
