The celebs get paid and Razor takes a cut from each sale.

Chief executive and founder, Jamie Hinton, said: “It’s a really exciting time for Razor to be expanding the business in Sheffield.”

“The new office helps boost morale and productivity, whilst also offering a professional space to welcome visitors and clients into.

“We are surrounded by a strong business community down at Speedwell Works and we are looking forward to a long, prosperous future here.”

Razor started life as a side project when Jamie worked at Technophobia. After eight years, in 2013, he took the plunge, along with co-founder Steve Trotter, and Razor became a full-time operation.

Speedwell Works is part of the Alsop Fields development, owned by City Estates.

Dale Fixter, director at City Estates, said: “We’re delighted that Razor has become our latest commercial tenant. It further underlines the success that the Alsop Fields project has enjoyed since it opened back in 2017.”
