Interview with Dave’s Sweet Tooth CEO Andrew Chmielewski

We love start-up stories on the Home Business Podcast, and Andrew Chmielewski combines family, something you love and entrepreneurial opportunity. Dave’s Sweet Tooth was started by a retired Detroit firefighter who perfected his candy making skills providing toffee for his firehouse. Dave’s son, Andrew, recognized a perfect start-up storm, that these homemade heavenly treats could break out of the firehouse and be shared with the world. Dave’s Sweet Tooth (www.DavesSweetTooth.com) is now one of the leading toffee brands in the world.

Andrew Chmielewski has turned Dave’s Sweet Tooth into a leading worldwide brand.
