Marnie Swindells from London is hoping for Lord Sugar’s investment in her community focused boxing gym, BRONX.

Marnie says: “I think that taking the experience I have in the boxing industry and all the experience that he has in the business industry, together we would be a winning combination.

“I have fought tooth and nail to get to where I am today with my business. I deserve the chance to have that investment to show him what I can do with it”

On making the final, she adds: “I am so happy to be in the final after 11 weeks of hard work and having to pitch everybody else’s products on tasks. This is now my opportunity to showcase what I’ve been working on and give my business the platform it deserves.”

Meanwhile Rochelle Raye Anthony from Bedfordshire is hoping to win over Lord Sugar with her hair salon & academy.

Rochelle says: “I deserve Lord Sugar’s investment because I know the hair industry like the back of my hand and Lord Sugar knows business. Together, we would be an absolute force to be reckoned with.”
