About this episode
In this episode, I sit down with Ryan Giffin, founder of Commercial Kitchen Stop, to talk shop — literally. Ryan and I dig into everything from smart kitchen design to saving real money when you're building out a new pizzeria. He shares how he went from side hustling and cutting bold purchase orders during COVID to becoming one of the top 100 kitchen dealers in the country. We talk about his recent acquisition of a competitor, how he helps operators stretch their startup budgets, and what equipment is worth investing in (and where you can save big). We also get into: Common mistakes operators make during a kitchen build How refurbished equipment can save you $10K+ The importance of EOS and building a values-driven team Why Ryan’s a big believer in crypto — and how he's educating others to adopt it What separates successful operators from those still stuck in the grind I learned a ton in this conversation — and even walked away with some Bitcoin Cash, live on the show.
