Michelle Hapgood is a local young Mum who has set up her own successful small business. Michelle, who is married with three children, runs The Western Sandwich Company which delivers baguettes, salads and sandwiches across Neath and Swansea.

Michelle decided to set up the business while she was on maternity leave expecting her youngest child Lola (pictured right). Michelle felt that there was a ‘gap’ in the market for a good quality sandwich delivery service. She approached Business Connect for advice and support in setting up her business.

Michelle is delighted with the progress her business is making and she explains,
“I have no regrets whatsoever in becoming my own boss although it is hard work.  Running my own business means that I can devote more time to my family as I have more control over my hours.  Even though the hours are long, spending quality time with my family, especially at weekends is a perk of the job”.
