Welcome back to the Food Mentor podcast my name is David Burns your host and today we’re chatting with Fuad and Mehmet the founders of Pistabella Pistachio spread. It would be no secret that anything pistachio is in vogue in a big way right now, so in this episode we chat with the boys to understand how they saw this opportunity and more importantly how they’re going with the supply to Coles Nationally after only trading for just over 12 months. This is a fantastic inspirational story for young entrepreneurs as well as large organisations. Proving that 1.. “anything is possible” - 2..age is no barrier…. and most importantly 3.. it is absolutely all about the timing! I hope you enjoy this episode of the food mentor podcast.
