5 Successful Companies Who Opted For a Business Switch

Nokia:

Have you heard of Nokia Shoes? They are the predecessors of Nokia mobile. Fredrik Idemstam, a Finnish businessman who is very well known due to have founded the 150 year old Nokia had a rough start too. Idemstam never really planned on starting a mobile handset manufacturing unit; in fact it was not even close to the list of businesses he tried. Nokia’s founder had his fair share of experience inpaper products, paper industry, and rubber boots. He did not have a manufacturing plant for mobile handsets; he instead had a wood pulp mill in 1865. Shocking? But true.

Berkshire Hathaway:

Berkshire Hathaway, an American multinational conglomerate, which is an insurance behemoth today, was not Warren Buffet’s first choice of business. Buffet started as a paperboy at the age of 13 and then took to textile manufacturing. His knack for financial and business matters motivated him to start an insurance company.
