Summary
In a candid conversation Raine shares his entrepreneur journey, lessons learned that can help you and your business and what ultimately led him to founding ZIPFOX.
Raine Mahdi CEO and Founder of the global sourcing platform ZIPFOX. He previously founded packaging import company, Hawk Packaging.
During his 10+ year career as a buyer, he spent countless hours searching for suppliers on China-based websites where you could never really tell what was real, or who was trustworthy.
Sending money overseas with no protection was absolutely nerve-wracking and even after months of research, it still felt like a gamble everytime – and it was!
