As the sponsor of the competition, Zotec is proud to announce the first, second and third place winners from this semester:

This team bought a business, rebranded their product and really took a good look at the marketing and determined how to take sales to the next level. They worked nationally with grocery chain Fresh Thyme to gain local placement at three locations in Indianapolis.
