Anna Mowbray on ZURU’s Origin Story, Life in China, Parenting with Ali Williams, Auckland FC & More!

Описание: Anna Mowbray. A farm kid from the Waikato who has grown up to be one of New Zealand’s most formidable entrepreneurs and businesspeople.

Her and her 2 brothers established Zuru and worked tirelessly to grow it into one of the biggest toy companies in the world.

Now she is building another brand from the ground up- Zeil, an app for job hunters.

This was an honour. Anna has done a few podcasts before, but they have all been business related. This is her first ever podcast where we got to learn a bit more about the person behind the jaw-dropping success.

We covered all the important stuff like why she went to see Taylor Swift in Sydney even though she’s not a Swiftie.

Her childhood in Tokoroa and Cambridge

The early years of the Zuru in China

How her and All Black Ali Williams got together and his memorable first impression- what she loves and hates about him.

How they manage to blend families and run a household with five kids, and not spoil the kids. And so much more!

Anna is a total weapon. Not to mention bloody good fun and I really appreciated her time, so I hope you guys enjoy this conversation.
