What does it take to turn a niche idea into a global phenomenon? For Alan Barratt, it meant trusting his instincts, betting on a product his own board doubted, and risking it all on a pivot that made no logical sense, until it did.
In this episode, Alan reveals the behind-the-scenes battles that shaped Grenade’s bold transition from sports supplements to protein bars, the critical moment one unexpected ally tipped the scales, and how a sold-out launch in two hours changed everything.
It’s a masterclass in the power of instinct, risk-taking, and the importance of embracing failure along the way.
