John Apthorp
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Apthorp is a British businessman specializing in frozen food and alcoholic beverages.
He first enjoyed success as a founding member and managing director of the family business of frozen food stores Bejam, which became a market leader in the UK, trading from hundreds of stores across the country. In 1989, Apthorp sold the company which was still doing very well, to its rival Iceland. He also founded Wizzard Wines (now Majestic) a chain of off-licences.
It was reported in both 2002 and 2003 that the wealth of Apthorp and his family was over 100 million British pounds. [1]
