Brazi Bites- Junea Rocha - (as seen on Shark Tank )
Every culture has a food it\u2019s known for. In Japan, it\u2019s sushi, in Italy, it\u2019s pasta, and in Brazil, it\u2019s 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\u2019t 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\u2019t keep Brazi Bites on the shelves. In todays episode, we chat with Junea about:
