We share this interview from our Scale Up video series. Within 6 months of launching, Better Nature had placed their tempeh products into 50 retailers. Within a year they were in 100. Now, just two years after launch, the company is valued at £5.5m and they have recently raised £1.5m through crowdfunding to fund the next stage of their route map.

But how did Better Nature scale up so quickly? This interview with co-founder Chris Kong is part of our Vegan Scale Up series of interviews available to members on the Vegan Business Tribe website. And it doesn't matter if you have a food business like Chris, sell a service or even run a charity, you can adopt the same 'growth mindset' he used to scale up your vegan business.
