Today’s guests have grown Flax Sleep, a premium linen bedding and home goods brand, 600% in the last 3 years. Their journey started when Anna was unable to find a Canadian brand where she could buy linen bedding for herself. She then asked her friends Vivian and Oana if they wanted to start a business together. A short time later they were in an Airbnb in Shenzhen, China eating takeout, looking at samples, and preparing to put in their first order. Anna and Vivian generously share their business journey in today's episode and highlight the importance of friendship, good food, business coaching and customer service. Enjoy!
