Mitchell - FounderĀ
In January 2021, Mitchell was looking for a neon sign to buy for his girlfriend. However, upon browsing the available options, he found that no manufacturer provided the quality he was looking for, nor at a reasonable price. While working as an aerospace engineer, he spent the next few months researching the market, before finally launching Neon Daddy that summer, with a vision to supply the UKās best LED neon signs. Initially working as a one man band out of his parentsā bedroom for eight months, he used the money he had set aside to pay the deposit on a house to purchase the necessary machinery to realise his vision to produce top-quality LED neon signs at an affordable price. After quitting his job as an engineer and dedicating full-time attention to this endeavour, he took on the assistance of his sister, before steadily growing the team and the company to where it is today, as the UKās leading manufacturer of premium yet affordable LED neon signs.Ā
Mitchell is our chief sign maker and technical specialist, in addition to overseeing the day-to-day operations of the company, including handling customer service via email, ensuring that the rest of the team is happy. Most importantly of all, he makes sure that we do not run out of milk!Ā
