The Story

Hazel Hopper's grandmother had, in June

2007, died leaving a not inconsiderable sum

of money to Hazel. A close, unemployed,

friend, Holly Blackberry, had suggested that

they should start a rabbit farm.

Hazel had worked in a middle management

position, in personnel, for a large

multinational firm for a number of years but,

had found herself becoming increasingly

bored and unfulfilled with her job.

Striking out on her own was appealing
though, at the same time, frightening.

However, Holly had slowly convinced her that the 'Rabbit

Farm' idea was a good one. She after all, had raised rabbits

as a child and knew all there was to know about them.

Having made her decision to leave her job and embark on

this new venture Hazel Hopper began in January 2008 the

process of building a business. A business based on:-

Research

Prior to investing Hazel researched the market in particular

facilities, equipment, and breeding stock, and determined

where the market was and how many rabbits and their

products it could support.
