There can't be many woolly jumper manufacturers who have met every single sheep involved in producing them but that kind of locally sourced and transparent production is vitally important to Tom Kay, founder of 

He started the ethical clothing brand targeting surfers and outdoor lovers to take on the mass produced, disposable clothing culture. It's now a business with three stores and a huge following.

The company has just launched its biggest store to date in Bristol and 24 hours before the doors opened to the public, Dan Martin met Tom to hear his story.

Following a degree in Law and Japanese, Emma joined international accounting firm Arthur Andersen, where she worked in London, Leeds and Manchester offices and set up the firm's Inward Investment practice that attracted overseas companies to locate in the UK.

In 2000, bitten by the dot.com bug, Emma left the firm to start her first business, Techlocate. After 15 months, the company was successfully sold to Tenon plc.

The experience of starting, growing and selling a business from a home base gave Emma the idea for Enterprise Nation which was launched in 2006 as the home business website.

The company has since expanded to become a small business membership community of over 75,000 people who benefit from events and support: online and in person.

Enterprise Nation also presents a campaigning voice to government and the media on behalf of its members.
