Show Notes

Hello and welcome back to the show. It’s Doone here - host and hype girl. Today we’re learning from Amanda Klane, the founder of Yasso. A frozen greek yoghurt company that’s been putting smiles on faces since 2011.
 
Kindergarten friends turned entrepreneurs, founders Drew Harrington and Amanda Klane set out on a mission to create desserts that deliver on everyday indulgence with great taste, quality ingredients and superb nutritionals. Since hitting store shelves in 2011 as the first to market frozen Greek yogurt, Yasso quickly became one of the fastest-growing dessert brands in the world, disrupting the brand ranks of deeply entrenched competitors and attracting a loyal following of brand enthusiasts. 
In this episode we cover: 

  • The journey to building a business that does hundreds of millions in annual revenue
  • How to keep the energy and excitement in a business 10 years on and
  • Amanda’s important advice for food founders in 2022
