An update from a handkerchief brand that hasn't folded under the pressure.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1580
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Last week, we heard from an athlete who sets out to create chewable energy gum. It’s gum-believable! Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Stephen Chou in Northern California who together with his wife operates a couple of different businesses including Bumblebee Linens, which we first featured back in Ep. 928. That was an interesting story that he’ll touch on a bit in his update—but since then, a lot of things have happened. After experiencing a lot of growth, they ran into a huge problem one year ago when people stopped getting married (or at least having large weddings). They’ve been able to pivot in a remarkable way … I’ll let Steve tell you more specifically how Bumblebee Linens has taken flight once again after returning to the hive in the early pandemic days.
