TE 36: Octavia Costea: Founder of Spreads & Beyond

**Babson Entrepreneurship Forum Special**

Octavia Costea is the founder of Spreads & Beyond, a producer of 100% pure fruit spreads made without any added sugars, using an old Romanian family recipe. Octavia learned the original recipes from her mother, but, found the fruits she had access to in the USA weren’t quite as sweet, so she had to modify the recipes to come up with the three recipes she produces today.

In this episode you will learn:

• How Octavia moved to a new country at age 19.
• How she worked her way through college.
• How to find a need & solve it. 
• How to pivot in your business.
