Cotter Bros Firewood is operated by two brothers, Jack (22) and Nick Jr (19). It is a local farm business, based on producing and selling high-quality, ready to burn Wood Fuel Quality Assurance (WFQA) certified firewood.

What is pretty remarkable about the brothers, though, is the fact that they set up the business in 2011 when they were just 11- and 13-years-old and their entrepreneurial skills appear to know no bounds in the intervening years.
