Every culture has a food it's known for. In Japan, it's sushi, in Italy, it's pasta, and in Brazil, it's Pao de queijo, or Brazilian cheese bread. While sushi and pasta have long since made their way into every town in the United States, the same can't be said for Brazilian cheese bread. Recognizing this gap in the market, Junea decided to bring her favorite snack to America. And so she founded Brazi Bites. Initially, the growth was steady and predictable, but once they went on Shark Tank, Junea quite literally couldn't keep Brazi Bites on the shelves. In todays episode, we chat with Junea about:
š¦ Selling out nationwide in a matter of days after airing on Shark Tank
š¦ The challenges that come with inventing a new food category
š¦ And why her deal with Lori Greiner ended up falling through once the cameras stopped rolling.
