Summary

In this episode I am joined by David Habib, founder of Yo Mama's. Tired of bland, preservative-packed sauces that caused him relentless heartburn, David took matters into his own hands. Trading spreadsheets for saucepans, he founded Yo Mama’s Foods in 2017 with a mission to create pasta sauces made from simple, honest ingredients—just like his mom would. Bootstrapped from his personal savings, David built a brand now found in over 25,000 stores worldwide, with tens of millions of jars sold and a #2 ranking for marinara sauces on Amazon. In this episode, hear how David scaled Yo Mama’s into the fastest-growing pasta sauce brand in the U.S. without a penny of outside capital.
