Episode 41 - Scott Reeves

Discussion with Axis boardshop owner and co-founder, Scott Reeves!

Scott is an entrepreneur from Québec with a big passion for action sports. After many years working in a shop while completing an engineering degree, Scott teamed up with 2 friends to start Axis boardshop in 2002. What started out of a passion for action sports turned into an immediate success. Axis quickly became a staple in the Québec action sports scene with their deep involvement in the freeskiing, snowboarding and skateboarding scene. After a decade in business, Axis had a total of 9 shops open in the province of Québec before going back to only one physical location in the mid-2010s. Axis is now over 20 years old and still going strong in st-sauveur, Québec.

In this episode we talked about a bunch of stuff! Scott's entrepreneurship story, opening a boardshop in the early 2000s, the challenges of handling rapid growth in a business, the importance of giving back to the community and much much more
