Graham Bosher, one of the founders of successful movie rental business Lovefilm, is living proof that adapting an existing business model can prove to be as good as inventing a new one. Rather than sending out movies by post, Graze, which was established by Bosher in 2007, offers a service that delivers healthy snacks. It now sends out 80,000 letterbox-sized boxes of fruits, nuts and dried berries a month, charging £2.99 a go – less than the delivery charge of most online supermarkets. Turnover this year is an impressive £2.5m, while a recent £2m investment from Octopus Ventures and DFJ Esprit suggests that the company could scale just as well as its older sibling.
