SUSTAINABLE door and window firm Green Doors has marked its tenth anniversary. The Luton-based business was founded by Joseph Holman after he found a set of French doors in a skip and resold them on eBay.
The ‘side hustle’ has now grown into a £2 million turnover business which employs over 20 staff and saves thousands of doors from being dumped into landfill.
“I saw this as a great way to make money and make an impact,” Joseph said. “So I started trawling skips looking for items to resell. Then, one day, I spotted a mountain of goods outside a door and window shop and decided to rescue the lot. I sold them on and reinvested the profits into more stock.”
