Jenny Dawson
Founder at Rubies In The Rubble
United Kingdom(UK)
The 27-year-old founder of Rubies in the Rubble was working for a Mayfair hedgefund when she came up with the concept for her new venture. She had seen how many perfectly edible fruits and vegetables are discarded from London markets and decided to use the surplus produce to make jams and chutneys. Thus, Rubies in the Rubble was born.
Jenny started her company in 2011, and she’s come a long way since, receiving the Veuve Clicquot New Generation Award for her achievement in business in 2014.
