We have a very colourful show this week with honorary Corkonian Stephen Jiang who from the age of 14 moved here from China on his own, without a word of English might we add! His story is as vibrant as his business Fervor & Hue - a quirky & colourful interior design brand. From day one he was a hardworking teenager balancing school, learning a new language & working throughout school & college all the while his family were back home in China. He fell in love with Cork, and in love with a Cork woman (who is now his wife) so he was cushioned comfortably in the city. After years of hard work in multiple businesses, he realised it was time to set up shop & that's when Fervor & Hue was born from passion & colour. He tells Stephen how he built his brand from one shop, to expanding up to 80 retailers all the while connecting his roots in China & Cork. This episode is not to be missed!
