A big fish in the pond of the United Kingdom's YouTube, streaming, and gaming scene is Vikram Singh Barn, also known as "Vikkstar123." With over a decade of experience in the content creation world, he has raked in a hefty net worth (estimated to be between $8-10 million) while venturing out into various businesses.

The YouTuber also holds a significant role as one-seventh of the UK's largest and most prominent YouTube collective, known as the Sidemen. Vikram has been an integral part of this group since its establishment in 2013.

This article aims to delve deeper into the financial landscape of the Indian-origin British creator and explore the array of businesses he owns.


What are the businesses that Vikkstar123 owns?

As a member of the UK's premier YouTube collective (The Sidemen), Vikkstar123 shares ownership in a diverse range of ventures spanning from fashion to food and beverages.

One of Vikram's initial business ventures, and possibly his very first, is his ownership stake in Sidemen Clothing (established in November 2014). Fans can purchase various products and merchandise from Sidemenclothing.com, with Vikram being one of the seven owners of this enterprise:

Since 2020, the Sidemen have expanded into various other industries. For instance, they are the proprietors of Sides, a restaurant chain launched in 2021. Additionally, the group ventured into the alcoholic beverage market with XIX Vodka, also initiated in the same year. Vikram co-owns both of these ventures.
