Guest Quote
“I do love developing and formulating new products, just not in house. I don't think that's a core competency that we have. That's a decision that allowed us to grow rapidly as well, because we could have more of our brain energy go into marketing efforts, or just systems and processes efforts rather than being a shipping or manufacturing company.” - Eric Bandholz
