Anne Butterly as a Female Entrepreneur<\/h2>

Anne had initially struggled to get funding and support for her innovative idea \u2013 a range of eco-friendly, disposable products primarily for the hairdressing sector but with wide-ranging applications in other industries like fitness, healthcare and hospitality. In fact, Easydry can replace cotton towels in any industry that needs a constant supply of clean, fresh towels. \u00a0As Anne explains, \u201cI heard no a lot, at the start.\u201d AIB believed in Anne and her vision – they backed brave and supported Easydry at the early stages of the company.<\/p>

Easydry History<\/h2>\r\n

Easydry is now operating in over twenty-five markets and has survived crises like recessions, BREXIT and COVID-19 in recent years.<\/p>

Anne has encouraging words for other entrepreneurs, especially female entrepreneur and entrepreneurs with sustainable products. \u201cIn business, you have to be brave. Brave to set up. Brave to keep going. And then brave to bring in new products, new ideas and ask can we do better?\u201d. \u00a0It is incredibly motivating to look at the potential impact of your business and your product. Anne continues, \u201cIf you take the UK hair sector, which would be one of our key markets, if salons in the UK switched to Easydry, they would save 2.4 billion litres of water every year.\u201d<\/p>\r\n
