Jefferson County CEO recently had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Ben Sperry, a CEO Board member, who has always been connected to the success story of Joe’s Pizza. Starting out washing dishes and delivering food, Ben’s journey has come full circle—he now owns three Joe’s locations!

With patience, persistence, and a few strategic loans, Ben recently completed the renovation and expansion of his Mount Vernon location, a testament to his dedication and vision. 💪

A few key pieces of advice he shared:
💡 "You learn as you go" when it comes to navigating the complexities of finance.
💼 And that labor, more than anything, "will make or break you," depending on how you manage it.

Overall, it was another wonderful visit with an inspiring entrepreneur. Ben’s story is a great reminder that hard work and resilience truly pay off!
