Start An Aprons Business

Here are some real life success stories of starting a aprons business:

1. Stone ($1.2M/year)

Stefan Johnson, co-founder of STONE, came up with the idea for their business while photographing a two-Michelin-star chef using a regular notebook that kept sliding on the kitchen surface. Together with his client Eliot, they brainstormed and came up with the concept for a chefs notebook with unique features, including stone paper, which led to the launch of their successful Kickstarter campaign and the creation of STONE.

How much they make: $1.2M/year
Current team size: 5
