How to bootstrap a business and scale to range a food based product in over 300 stores - Guest Matt Melville Founder of Rum and Que

If you need advice from a business owner who started in his kitchen filling up bags of Rub to mass producing and being ranged in over 300 stores nationwide, then this podcast is for you!  Matt and his wife are the founders of Rum and Que; Rum and Que sprung to life at New Zealand's first barbeque competition - Meatstock 2016. A bunch of mates that loved food, flavour and the chance to try their hand at something new. Armed with homemade rubs and sauces, they immersed themselves in a scene like no other. Today, Rum and Que has evolved into a family-run business. Staying true to our beginnings, we've hung on to our flavours and continued to create and perfect a range of products we are proud to have on shelves and in the hands of competition teams and fellow food lovers to enjoy as much as we do. https://www.rumandque.com/ NZ SME&E Festival is in the Vodafone Events Centre in Auckland on 8 & 9 November 2022 jump onto www.nzsmeefestival.com to grab your ticket. have an epic day!!!!
