Show Notes

Becca Jordan Wright is the Founder and Owner of Piedmont Pennies, North Carolina's handcrafted cheese snack. Born and raised in North Carolina, with a corporate background in Management Consulting and Big Tech, Becca's love for hospitality and food was finally realized when she launched Piedmont Pennies D2C in September 2020 during the global COVID-19 pandemic. Becca's goal was to provide her community a way to "Stay cheesin" during the difficult times of COVID, and she enlisted the help of her fellow MBA classmates to "pinch pennies" and market. Today, Piedmont Pennies is based in Charlotte, NC, employees five NC residents, and is in over 40 retail stores as well as online at Piedmont Pennies. Based on her Grandmother's recipe, these spicy cheese snacks are the perfect cross between a homemade cracker and a biscuit. They pair perfectly alongside a cold beer or glass of wine, and make the ideal charcuterie board addition for your savory snack lover.  We talk about how she went from managment consulting, to getting her MBA, doing an internship at Facebook, getting an offer, turning it down and going all in on Piedmont Pennies. Also...

We talk about if spending the money on an MBA is worth it and do you need it to be an entrepreneur.  You'll love Becca and this episode! Get your cheese fix at Piedmont Pennies online
