Being in the supplement space I was really interested tohear about the process behind launching a pre workout energy drink brand.Ryan Weekley (who you may have seen on Love Island) &Ben Stevens both worked in the military together. After deciding to leave the military at the exactly the same time to pursue a business idea they are both passionate about was really inspiring. They’ve created a great product (peach & and raspberry is my favourite flavour) & I’m really looking forward to seeing how the brand grows over the next few years. Enjoy this episode!
