From her early days in the on-the-go breakfast industry to the exciting launch of Nice Wines, Lucy shares the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, offering a candid look at the challenges of getting the sales wheel turning and navigating the constant firefighting that comes with building a business from the ground up.

Lucy takes us behind the scenes of disrupting the wine industry, revealing how she and her team have crafted a brand that’s not only inclusive and fun but also functional. With a keen eye for branding—like the iconic pink boiler suits worn by the Nice Wines team, which I LOVE—she demonstrates the power of creating a strong, recognisable identity.
