One of the most celebrated entrepreneurs in North Kansas City, Joe Roetheli, will be the featured speaker at our April Monthly Membership Luncheon, on April 27th, 2023. Our April luncheon is intended to recognize, honor and inspire current and aspiring entrepreneurs!
You will not be disappointed with Joe's presentation! He has a wealth of lessons learned as a struggling - then wildly successful and now a repeat - entrepreneur. Joe and his wife, Judy, created and grew the Greenies dog treat brand, which was extremely successful and eventually resulted in acquisition by the Mars Company. They are now experiencing rapid growth with another dog treat product called Yummy Combs, with a company they call Pet's Best Life. He presents his story in an interesting and humorous manner. Joe will also share stories of some of the humanitarian projects done through their Lil' Red Foundation.
Some of the awards received by Joe and Judy, and their companies include:
- Mr. K Award
- 3 years in the Great KC Chamber of Commerce Top 10 Small Businesses
- Petco Vendor of the Year Award 2004 & 2005
- National District Export Council's Small Business Exporter of the Year
- Stevie Award for Best Packaging by a small company
- Within 10 years, was ranked by the pet industry as the 8th largest pet food/treat company in the world with 2 products
Join us at Harrah's in the Windsor Room on April 27th, 2023, to hear more about Joe and Judy Roetheli and their journey to success!
And remember,
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door!
