Notes:
Mandy Rennehan is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Freshco, the privately-owned retail maintenance, projects and reconstruction company based in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Summary:
"Born in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Mandy Rennehan began her business career at ten-years-old by catching bait and selling it to local fishermen. She was so good at her job, she was soon out-earning her father, a local lobster fisherman. At the age of seventeen, Rennehan decided to strike out on her own, so she packed a hockey bag full of her belongings and fled to Halifax, where she began cold calling
construction
companies, volunteering to work for free, so she could learn more about contracting and the trades. Three years later, Rennehan had garnered all the experience she needed to start her own company Freshco, a boutique retail maintenance and
construction
company. Still in her early twenties, Rennehan's reputation as a knowledgeable and trustworthy
contractor
, led to her first corporate contract with The Gap. Freshco has since gone on to become a multi-million-dollar company whose clients are some of the top corporations in North America, including Apple, Lululemon, Tiffany's, Sephora, Anthropologie, Nike, and Home Depot, to name but a few. Known as the Blue-Collar
CEO
for her ability to seamlessly navigate between the white- and blue-collar worlds, and as a tireless advocate for the trades, Rennehan's savvy business skills and innovative thinking, led her to the top of a male-dominated industry before she reached the age of thirty. This book is the "respectfully uncensored" story of how Rennehan succeeded in business through honesty, integrity, and most of all, authenticity - by always remaining true to herself and her vision for success."--From publisher.
