EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Black Businesses Matter, I speak with Lisa Marsh, the founder and CEO of MsP’s Gluten Free, shares insights into her journey. MsP’s Gluten Free specializes in creating nutritious, delicious, and healthy gluten-free snack foods to support a gluten-free diet. Lisa reflects on her upbringing as one of six children on Chicago's south side, emphasizing the importance of differentiation. She credits her mother, a strong and no-nonsense parent, as a significant influence and the inspiration behind MsP’s, a venture she started to address personal health concerns, specifically a gluten issue, leading to a transformative shift toward a healthier lifestyle.
Throughout her entrepreneurial venture with MsP’s, Lisa faced the challenges of starting without retail knowledge, funds, or social media presence. However, she gradually mastered the necessary skills, marking the product's placement on the shelves of Whole Foods and Fresh Time as a significant achievement. This success stands as a testament to Lisa's passion and dedication to providing nutritious gluten-free options to her customers.
