In this episode, we speak with Tony Grant, who is the CEO of Northern United Brewing, a craft beer company and restaurant operator in Michigan.  Tony has a great story that starts with an Electrical Engineering degree, a brief stint in the National Football League, and then an "accidental" journey into the retail industry.  Now, Tony claims to be a full-blown retail geek and loves the constant activity that a career in the retail industry requires.  In the discussion, he shares his insights on how and why he made certain decisions, why its so important to find opportunities that help you grow and learn, and why he's found great satisfaction in the smaller company.
