Stuart Cook is the former CEO of Zambrero - an international Mexican Quick Service Restaurant chain. He joined the business almost accidentally, and left six years later having built the business to a revenue upwards of $100 million.

Now he is collaborating with his wife Samantha on an exciting, plant-based fast food option, Flave, that has launched in Sydney and has mega global ambitions.

In this podcast we talk about what it’s like to step into CEO shoes at just 23 years of age, why he has such an interest in not-for-profit organisations, and lessons learned on the journey so far.
