Lucie Balchin is crowned UK's youngest shop owner at 17
The British Independent Retailers Association claims Lucie Balchin could be the youngest person to own a shop.
Due to age restrictions the shop bank account is in her mother's name and she cannot sign company cheques.
Ms Balchin told BBC Radio 5 live's Anna Foster how she is met by looks of surprise when she tells customers she owns the Crazy Cow gift shop in Modbury, Devon.
