CHAD PRICE

While working as a gas controller in corporate America for TransCanada in Houston he discovered that corporate America wasn’t sustainable for him long term and he wanted to start his own business.  Seeing the inner workings of a large corporation gave him the impetus to start his own e-commerce focused business.  

Along with two partners they narrowed down their product list and settled on kettlebells. At the time it wasn’t a known space but was a growing market.  He desired to build kettlebells as the centerpiece of a health and wellness community. Then started the first BIPOC owned Kettlebell company, “Kettlebell Kings” which is like the ESPN of the kettlebell world. A place to foster a community of people using kettlebells as the centerpiece of fitness. Take everyone’s content alongside their uniquely created content and display it in a way that’s easy for people to consume and feel part of a community. 

In business he can be as competitive as he wants and not worry like he did on the sports field, when he was in Rice University.

After ten years, Chad’s first venture Kettlebell Kings was acquired by Razor Group for millions of dollars.

Then went on to create and start “Life Grows Green” is a side project that he started as a result of negative images and culture around hemp plants.  Being a big believer in natural and green products which is naturally encompassed in Hemp he tried to make products just from nature; natural based products. Products that include: CBD related capsules, oils, tinctures, salves, peanut butter, honey, melatonin and protein powder and made them available direct to the online consumer.

Chad continues his commitment to fitness, health and wellness and makes sure to travel extensively and spend time with his family.
