221. The Story of Uncle Matt’s Organic Juice

In this episode I’m joined by a true pioneer in the world of organic CPG—Matt McLean, the founder of Uncle Matt’s Organic.

Matt’s journey is a masterclass in scaling with integrity. From navigating the complexities of retail and supply chains to staying ahead of evolving consumer trends, Matt has built a mission-driven brand that’s not only profitable—but principled. He sold his company to Dean Foods, just to buy it back 2 years later when the acquirer went bankrupt.

If you care about sustainability, business leadership, and the real story behind building an iconic brand in a crowded market, this episode is for you.

So grab a glass of OJ and let’s dive in.
