A North Tyneside entrepreneur and fitness enthusiast didn’t have too look far for inspiration when he decided to launch a nutritionally balanced food delivery business for gym-goers.
The Three Hungry Bears owes its name and distinct persona - including health goals and personality - to Dan Oliver's trio of teenage sons, Tom, Bob and Ben, with each boasting their own menu that matches their fitness goals.
Dan, who lives in North Shields, said: “My youngest son, Ben, was always known as The Bear and it’s a nickname that has stuck with him. In fact, all of my sons have grown up to be big guys – between 6ft 4in and 6ft 10in. So the bear metaphor works well on them!”
