Show notes
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 this week on the show I’m joined by Steven Thai, founder of Ocean King, a business that started with a van selling prawns and grew into a 32,000 sq ft food distribution company. Steven shares his inspiring journey from being a Vietnamese refugee to leading a successful business. He discusses the importance of core values, strategic growth, and delegating tasks. Key turning points include joining an entrepreneur peer group and implementing EOS/Traction methodologies. Steven also offers valuable advice and book recommendations for entrepreneurs.
