Ep78: Beehive to £50M - How Scott Davies Built Hilltop Honey Empire

In this latest episode, we’re diving into the remarkable story of Scott Davies, the visionary Welsh founder of Hilltop Honey. From an early career as a bricklayer and coal yard worker to building a £50M business (number two in the market) and designing and building his own 55,000 square foot factory, Scott’s story is a testament to resilience, innovation, and an unyielding passion for bees and business!

Scott takes us behind the scenes of Hilltop Honey’s unlikely start and rise to success, sharing his experiences and the strategies that have helped him overcome challenges and achieve incredible growth. It's packed with inspiration for founders, dreamers, and anyone looking to turn adversity into opportunity. If you are interested in understanding what it takes to grow and lead a business of this size, then this is an episode for you.
