TAS 160 – Andy Akroyd’s Amazing journey to a super-successful Amazon business

The Australian Seller

If you’re in any of the Amazon Facebook groups, such as The Australian Seller and End Game Network or if you’ve been to any Amazon meetups and conferences in Australia, you’ll have seen Andy Akroyd contributing positively and cheerfully.

Andy has an amazing life story, growing up in Zimbabwe, before becoming a soldier in the civil war for 10 years. After the war, he moved to South Africa and established a farm with a breeding program for primates and cheetahs.

With a strong interest in caring for animals, wildlife and sustainability, he developed products in the fishing space which he now sells very successfully on Amazon.

Today he talks to us about his business, patent disputes and how he’s overcome many obstacles to develop a thriving ecommerce business.
