They share their remarkable journey from stable careers at Apple and Boeing to becoming successful shed dealers across Arizona. Discover how their partnership with Five Star Sheds fueled their growth and led to exciting new ventures like the Glendale Supercenter and their innovative products, including greenhouses and portable decks.
April and Greg open up about the challenges and rewards of expanding their business to new locations. Learn how they’ve navigated unique obstacles and embraced opportunities, such as catering to customers looking to bypass certain county requirements with portable porches.
