In this episode, Patrick Bishop, the passionate and driven co-founder of Reroute Americas, shares how a chance discovery of agave straws led him and his team to launch a fast-growing, sustainable packaging company. What started as a mission to reduce waste in the food and beverage space evolved into an AI-powered distribution platform that’s transforming inventory management for stadiums, resorts, restaurants, and beyond.

From landing major partnerships with pro sports teams to launching proprietary AI tools, Patrick walks us through how he and his team are scaling with intention—and sustainability at the core. You’ll hear how he overcame massive setbacks like Hurricane Ian, why failure was never an option, and what he sees as the future for tech in distribution.
