And for this female duo that means a lot of dancing! Their Health-Ade Kombucha is designed for healthy lifestyles – they want their customers to feel their best, most active selves. Today, their product is in over 30,000 grocery stores including Target, Whole Foods and Costco. Trout began brewing the kombucha in her apartment and selling the homespun bottles at local farmers markets. She was already living the brand slogan of “follow your gut” when she met Dew and realised that the three partners had something special on their collective hands. Trout was already in LA after she graduated Tufts University, where she earned Masters’ degrees both in nutrition and public health. Luck may have brought Dew into contact with the Trout, but it was a unique combination of science, skill and drive that led to the team’s success. Her degree in biochemistry from UC San Diego and a MBA from University of Southern California prepared Dew for a future in health science, but it was her involvement in female entrepreneurship – like SC’s Female Founder Collective and Trout’s entrepreneurship group – that launched her into co-founding one of the most ubiquitous kombucha brands on the shelves. Native Angeleno Vanessa Dew met Daina Trout and her husband Justin, also a co-founder, at an entrepreneurship club started by Trout.
The health and wellness lifestyle is synonymous with Southern California so it makes sense that best friend duo and co-founders of Health-Ade Kombucha got their start in Los Angeles.
