We had the good fortune of connecting with Kevin Rhodes and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kevin, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
When starting our business we wanted something that was going to improve our families lives. Not only financially but also the everyday health of our family and the surrounding environment. They always say if you do what you enjoy you never really work a day in your life.

We found that, it started as a hobby and turned into a business.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am really excited about building a brand and a company completely debt free from the ground up. We pride ourselves on being honest good people. We offer a great product at a very reasonable price compared to other brand in our same category.

We have learned that be 100% honest and true to who we are is the best way to conduct our self’s on a daily basis. Our brand reflects us and who we are and our beliefs.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
We would do the following:

Go hiking at the White Tanks
Take in a Coyotes Game
Eat at State 48 in Surprise
Ride motorcycles around the valley aimlessly
Go out for a nice boat ride
Hang out with our neighbors on the street and have a fire

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My brother Ryan, whom I started the business with and my Father who from a young age instilled the entrepreneurial spirt in us.
