175) Paul Richardson - Building Global Brands. Taking Gymshark to £1 Billion, Buying Hera, & Beyond.

Today’s conversation is with Paul Richardson. I could list Paul’s extensive bio and huge list of previous achievements but that would take up a lot of your listening time. You may know him from his time as executive director and chairman of Gymshark, previous Joint Owner of All Saints, and current owner of Hera. Expect to hear about Paul’s genesis story and the upbringing, family environment and exposure to business from a young age that shaped him. You’ll hear about numerous sliding doors moments where big decisions led to the path Paul has walked. You will learn about the various businesses Paul has built, scaled, bought, and sold during his career and the lessons he has taken on board and implanted. You may know or may be about to learn the huge impact Paul had as the business man that Ben Francis and Lewis Morgan turned to the gym at David Lloyd to help them grow Gymshark from £4.5 million to over £1 billion. Within this episode, we also speak about Paul’s purchase of Hera as well as his affinity with Birmingham City Football Club, his previous involvement on the board in the early 2000s, and now his recent takeover bids alongside Maxi Lopez. I loved having this conversation with Paul and know you will enjoy it too. We could have kept delving into Paul’s business mind and lessons but I’m delighted to be able to bring you a full hour discussion. If you’ve enjoyed it, please do share with a friend who would also enjoy this episode. Paul highlights his Instagram at the end of this episode, but I’ve also include his LinkedIn in today’s show notes.
