Episode 19
This week's guest is the co-founder of Sound, Tommy Kelly. Sound was born from its co-founder's desire for a better-tasting, more exciting unsweetened beverage. We talk about the company's founding happening while Tommy was an engineer looking for a drink to keep him going during long days and partnering with his then co-worker and now co-partner, Salim.
Tommy embraces the ebbs and flows of the hard-to-navigate CPG business. He speaks honestly about the hurdles and brings incredible insight to the field. We also talk about his role in growing Brooklyn pizza empire Roberta's and the up-and-coming Ever Hop hop water.
