John Apthorp is a British businessman specializing in frozen food and alcoholic beverages.
He first enjoyed success as a founding member and managing director of the family business of frozen food stores Bejam, which became a market leader in the UK, trading from hundreds of stores across the country. In 1989, Apthorp sold the company which was still doing very well, to its rival Iceland. He also founded Wizzard Wines (now Majestic Wines) a chain of off-licences.
It was reported in both 2002 and 2003 (and again in 2009) that the wealth of Apthorp and his family was over 100 million pounds Sterling.
