Shaking Up The Gym Business

Shaking Up The Gym Business

In the middle of the pandemic, Randall Wong found that his boutique gym business was slowing down. And like many other entrepreneurs Randall had to think about how he would sustain through a pandemic that had no fixed end date. After some research into the pandemic’s effect on people’s health, Randall saw that more and more people were developing an interest in nutrition. Shortly afterwards, and with some investment from his partners, Shakeasy was born. A smoothie bar where you can buy healthy plant-based protein smoothies.
