Meet the Professional – Q&A

September 24, 2019

Welcome to the latest edition of – MEET THE PROFESSIONAL with Diptesh Patel. He’s the cheeky chappy behind the counter at Diptesh Confectioners who, as well as stocking most of the local offices’ supply cupboards with a whole host of (non)-alcoholic treats, is always ready with a joke or a bit of cockney rhyming slang.

Here he answers our questions, tongue firmly in cheek.

None

Talk to customers and take money

Open the door, go in and think why am I here?

Family pressure

Networking with other local businesses

Not charging enough

I rent a retail space on Leonard Street.

Good environment creates good work

Another job

Only start something you’re interested in and give your heart to it

No

Be nice to all, be fair to your customers.

Can’t tell you, that’s rude 😉
