#672 Ever wondered what it really takes to get your product off a folding table and onto the shelves of Walmart, Costco, or Target? In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with retail expert Jay Yung, founder of Evergreen Retail Solutions, to break down the real path from farmer’s market tables to national store shelves.
