This week I had the honor and privilege of interviewing Andrew Ramroop, Master Tailor of Savile Row, from his Caribbean home in Trinidad.  In this intimate interview,  Andrew reveals some of the quiet details and influences that helped to shape his life as an entrepreneur and gives some sage wisdom for future entrepreneurs, especially entrepreneurs of color, to adopt.Andrew Ramroop arrived in UK from Trinidad in 1970 with a burning ambition of becoming a Savile Row tailor.
