CultureSeven lessons from Lao Gan Ma founder Tao Huabi

Tao Huabi rose from poverty through her Lao Gan Ma chili-sauce empire and became one of China’s most recognizable food entrepreneurs. Starting with a roadside noodle stall, she built and expanded the brand, refused to take it public, and kept it privately owned. Lao Gan Ma now produces about 3 million bottles a day.
