Episode 6 - Reese Rises to Sudden Transition Challenge

Reese Burns fully expected to be the heir to the family business - eventually.

But when his father, Dan, died a few years ago, the now 26-year-old’s plans to assume the helm of Burns Bulk Food, “eventually” turned into “suddenly.” The transition came with the expected challenges involved in taking over a business - but also the challenges of navigating inter-generational family dynamics, since Reese’s grand-parents (and former owners of the historic store) helped their grand-son steer that transition. 

Reese tells us how he’s meeting the challenges of this transition, staying true to the family legacy, but also putting his own stamp on the historic store.
