Thank you Clement for the introduction to our guest today, Ken Sadowsky, or, as Forbes dubbed him “The Beverage Whisperer”. Ken grew up in the beverage business. His grandfather started the beverage distributor Atlas Distributing and he was the first to distribute Vita Coco and also was the Director of Energy Brands Inc., makers of Vitamin Water, Smart Water and Fruit Water, which they eventually sold to Coca Cola for $4.1 Billion. Now he’s a Beverage Advisor to Verlinest, which is Anheuser-Busch InBev’s investment arm. We discuss his story, what are the opportunities within beverage today, if there’s a trend that he’s not sold on and how to identify great entrepreneurs.****Sponsor****This issue is brought to you by Vauban from Carta.
