What's Trending?: BeeSweet Lemonade Receives Contract from Whole Foods Market
You might recognize her from, "Shark Tank!" And while she only received a $60,000 investment from Shark Tank. Whole Foods also sees the potential in her lemonade product. 11-year-old, Mikaila Ulmer, is definitely making progress with her business. I would have had her featured in, "Entrepreneurial Mind" but this news is actually trending right now! And I have an "Entrepreneurial Mind" article scheduled for tomorrow.
This girl's lemonade is nutritious and uses honey as a sweetener. And this only caught the attention of Whole Foods Market as Mikaila gained a "four-state contract" with Whole Foods! The supermarket chain signed a deal with Ulmer to sell the lemonade in 55 stores across Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma.
This girl is using her business to support bees, despite being traumatized but the little buggers. She told NBC, "When I was four-years-old, I was stunk by two bees in one week." She also stated that it was painful and was terrified of bees. But she became inspired to use local honey for her lemonade product.
