Hi there and welcome back to another edition of ScaleUp Radio, the podcast inspired by the Entrepreneurial ScaleUp System and designed to make navigating our ScaleUp journeys that little bit easier by learning from others' experiences.

I’m Kevin Brent and I’m thrilled to bring you  today’s episode featuring Monika Gyenes, the founder of Best of Hungary—a remarkable business that imports and sells authentic premium Hungarian food and wine in the UK.

Starting as a small side project, Monika has grown her business to a £700k operation, overcoming challenges like Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic with a focus on quality and deep relationships with producers.

Most founders I speak to feel busy but stuck; plenty happening, but not always clear on what genuinely matters most this quarter. If that’s you, the G90 Summit is worth a look. A structured half-day where we work through everything competing for your attention, get clear on the three to five things that must happen in the next 90 days, then commit to them and build the system to make sure they actually happen. Quarterly, virtual, £97 a seat.
