About the Business
Conan Sharman qualified as a plumber in June 1996 after a 5 year apprenticeship with John Bean Plumbing in Durban, South Africa. He subsequently set up his own business, which he ran successfully for a year. A year down the line however, his career path took a different direction, as the talented sportsman was given the opportunity to further his rugby career, and was offered a professional contract with London Scottish FC, thanks to a British Passport acquired through his Aberdeen-born father.
In August 1997, he travelled overseas with fellow Natal Shark and ex-Springbok and Scotland hooker, John Allan, and spent 2 years in London before moving north to Edinburgh, where he spent 7 years with Edinburgh Reivers/Rugby. During his time in Edinburgh, he represented Scotland 'A', Scotland Sevens and Barbarians FC, and it was also here that he met his wife, Fiona.
