About this episode
Craig Sams, the original Food Rebel, has a wealth of tales to share, and so we decided to release a bonus unedited version of the conversation we had with him.
As we reach the 30th anniversary of the FairTrade mark, Craig reflects on the groundbreaking moment when Green & Black’s chocolate became the very first to earn this prestigious designation, marking a pivotal milestone in the world of fair and ethical trade.
But it doesn’t stop there. Craig’s adventures take us across the globe for his ever-evolving business ventures. He delves into the fascinating narrative of Gusto, a drink he crafted back in 1987, which evolved into a thriving business, creating waves in Holland and Amsterdam’s coffee shops.
Join our host, AJ Sharp, and guest presenter and former MasterChef winner Dhruv Baker as they listen in awe to Craig’s tales of resilience, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to doing things differently.
