Bellerby & Co.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Entrepreneur\u00a0<\/em>magazine profiles Peter Bellerby<\/a>, the founder of globemaking company Bellerby and Company<\/a>. We’ve seen a lot of Bellerby<\/a> profiles over the past few years, but this one goes into more depth than most. The story of the company’s founding (Peter wanted to make a globe for his father’s 80th birthday, et cetera) is retold, but we get some more detail about the size and volume of its business today: “This year, the company should turn around about 750 globes, compared to 500 last year\u2014and the current wait list stands between six months and two years depending on globe size. Revenue-wise, the company will likely net about 3 million pounds (close to $4 million) in 2018.” That’s … that’s something. [WMS<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
