Why Burning Down and Rebuilding Their Business Helped Swift Industries Win


Listen Later

What happens when your business grows too fast and the demand suddenly vanishes? This week, I’m joined by Martina Brimmer, co-founder of Swift Industries, a premium bikepacking brand known for its exceptional design and creative culture. Martina shares how she dismantled her team, restructured operations, and found her creative spark again after the post-COVID contraction in the cycling industry.

Listen in as she talks through the high-stakes decision to downsize, the systems that made it possible, and how she rebuilt the business around brand, joy, and simplicity. We also explore the behind-the-scenes of running a two-person operation, the strategic shift to international manufacturing, and how community-building efforts like Swift Campout are fueling both loyalty and growth—even when the ROI isn’t easy to track.
