A six-year-old boy has launched his own business and has vowed to one day become a millionaire.

The little lad, Britain’s youngest entrepreneur Alfie Bradley, has battled a severe speech disorder to set up his own garden and maintenance firm, Alfred’s Cutting Services, which he had formed during the lockdown.

Alfie’s hard work is already paying off, but rather than splash his cash on toys and sweets unlike other kids his own age, the clever little boy is re-investing all his profits to help grow his business.

In just a few months, Alfie has already upgraded his mower and bought a jet wash so he can offer a wider range of services -he’s also made a proper ‘work uniform’- very professional!

The youngster, who lives in Redruth, Cornwall, and charges €11.2 euros a job (approx ten pounds), is assisted by his dad Anthony, 45, but his family says all the work is carried out by Alfie and the idea was his own, “I want to be a millionaire.” said Alfie to his dad.

His mum Amy, 34, said: “There’s no stopping him. He’s like a mini Richard Branson, He’s always on his feet doing something so lockdown really restricted him from doing things outside of our home.”
