YOUNGSTERS at Coedcae School have proved they're no mugs when it comes to business.

Students have entered a young enterprise competition with their company Funky Mugs — designing, making and marketing their products to the community.

Nina Rees, head of ICT SAIS at the school, said the team was "overwhelmed" with the number of orders they received within days, turning over nearly £400 in just over a week.

She added that initial demand made it impossible to advertise, but hopes are high that the business will flourish after the Christmas rush.

"We intend to remarket ourselves, allowing pupils to come and design their own mugs which we will press for them," Mrs Rees said.

"We have also had interest from businesses who would like to use our services to develop their brand image and look more professional, we aim to develop into these areas further."
