Katie Dixon is an LCA2 student in Coláiste Mhuire in Ennis, Co Clare.
At just 18 years of age, she has set up her own company called Katie’s X21 Coffee.
As part of her final year work experience, she decided to open a coffee bag supply company.
The idea came about because her mam and dad, who both love coffee, always complain that instant coffee is boring, ground coffee is too much trouble and barista coffee is too expensive.
Katie, who lives with Down Syndrome, decided she would do something about this and so, Katie’s X21 was born.
She now hopes to continue to grow the business into the future!
On Friday’s Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to Katie and her father Mark Dixon.
