Show Notes

Did you ever think to yourself, “I could make a better smoothie than this!”?  Our guest today had the same thought.  Ted Volz is the founder of Clean Energy, a one-man operation that began producing clean label, fully organic, shelf-stable, one serving smoothie packets.  He did all the research, ran the numbers, found a co-packer and 3PL provider, and put out a terrific product that is getting rave reviews.  Ted did all this on his own, during a pandemic.

Join us for an inspirational discussion about how Ted Volz, a “numbers guy” with years of experience in accounting, became frustrated with the offerings he observed in the market and set out to create something better.

The “NexxtLevel Brands Podcast’ is hosted by G. Steven Cleere, Founder and “Chief Pot Stirrer” of NexxtLevel Brands. This show focuses on disruptors and thought-leaders from the Entrepreneurial Food, Beverage, and CPG Industry, but we also share tips from veterans and key suppliers that may help fellow CPG professionals achieve their goals.
