Andrew Holder is an entrepreneur extraordinaire. He’s also easygoing, funny and a regular family man.
He was born in England in 1971 where he was educated and then served his apprenticeship as a young marketeer in an interior design business. At the tender age of 24 he was appointed a partner within the rapidly expanding company. He became a key stakeholder in two management buy-outs and a number of mergers and acquisitions. In 2002, at the top of his professional game, Andrew decided to create his dream life in Australia.
He and his wife emigrated and they focused on setting up home and family. Simultaneously he hatched big business ideas and in 2005, TDA Interiors was founded. Between 2005 and 2010, Andrew launched five more businesses and remarkably, still found time to make more babies.
He now spends his time between family and work commitments. He has four children at home and over 60 staff at work. His two passions, family and career, energise him and give him the purpose and meaning to continue to experiment and experience all that this big modern life has to offer.
Andrew lives in Sydney Australia with his wife Susan and their four children, Jessica, Max, Charlie and Amy.
