Ellen Marie Bennett | Founder of Hedley & Bennett

Ellen Marie Bennett is the founder and CEO of Hedley & Bennett, which specializes in handcrafted premium aprons and culinary gear for the best chefs, home cooks, and makers worldwide.

Her story is a wild one, full of adventure and discovery, so we were excited to get a chance to hear about Ellen’s early days, moving to Mexico after graduating from high school and creating a whole new life for herself there, why she decided to move back to the U.S. and pursue a career in the culinary world, what sparked the idea for Hedley & Bennett, and some of the early challenges she had while launching the company. We also talked about the impact of COVID-19 on the business and what she believes the future of food and hospitality will look like.

UPDATE

Since our interview, Ellen has continued to expand her influence and impact. She authored a book titled "Dream First, Details Later," in which she shares her journey and offers inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs. Additionally, Ellen is working on an exciting TV show called "Kitchen Glow Up," which promises to bring her vibrant energy and creativity to a broader audience.
