Post-business closure update for Bondi Boy’s Jesse Lane

The 12-year-old entrepreneur is back in Coogee after a desperate fight to keep his favorite stall from closing.

Last year, Jesse Lane pitched a tent on the Bondi-to-Coogee walkway in east Sydney, selling cold drinks, insect repellent and sunscreen, winning the hearts of locals and saving a lot of pocket money.

However, the business was closed after two complaints from local residents that the young man should not be profiting from public land.

“Humans are absolute geniuses, know their markets well, and can make credit card transfers so easy that no one is inexcusable.”

“This kid has a big future. I saw him twice a day, every day during the school holidays. Coconut water was the winner. Keep Jessie’s hustle going,” wrote another. rice field.

In the face of the forced closure of preteen businesses, Eastern Suburban locals threw support around Jesse.

Liberal Party deputy leader Susan Ray voiced support, saying Jesse should be celebrated for “trying”.

“If we don’t support them today, there will be no small businesses or entrepreneurs of tomorrow,” she said.

“This is a stupid decision by @RandwickCouncil and should be overturned.

“The community is (equally) happy and a 12-year-old tries…what’s the problem?”

Over 6,000 locals have signed a petition to stop Jesse’s business from closing.
