#04: Chad Hartvigson – From Parents Garage to Global Brand

Inspired by the hype at the Grand Prix, Chad Hartvigston owner of Vintage Brand set out on a journey that began in his parents’ garage. With the support of his entire family and several friends, Chad has grown his business of custom sportswear into the empire it is today. 

The year was 1982 and little did they know, but the Kirkland National Little League would make history, dethroning Twain after a run of wins since 1967. Chad was an outstanding athlete as a child, and it was his team who took that title. 

He continued his baseball career in college and into the minors. Following his dream meant living on a couple of thousand dollars per year. 

From a broke minor league player to starting not one but two successful businesses join us to learn what drove him and what habits have allowed him to remain successful.
