Coco Vinny: Innovating Sustainability with COCO TAPS

My whole dream is to plant million coconut trees over The Next Years and we accelerated that. I think we can localize the whole coconut commodity in The United States because we're not growing any coconuts yet. Change the whole GDP around, made and grown and tapped in USA.
Imagine turning a simple coconut into a drinkable and resealable container. That's exactly what Coco Vinny, the Founder and CEO of COCO TAPS, has done. In this episode of the Alpha Quorum Podcast, host Derik Johnson chats with Vinny about his groundbreaking invention and the journey that led him to create a zero-waste company.
COCO TAPS is the first company of its kind to be certified as zero-waste, and it's making waves in places like Las Vegas resorts, cruise ships, and theme parks across Miami, Jamaica, and Puerto Rico. Vinny's story is a blend of creativity, determination, and an unwavering commitment to sustainability. He shares how his appearances on Shark Tank and The Profit helped shape his business, offering insights into the highs and lows of being an entrepreneur.
But it's not just about business; Vinny dives into the personal growth he's experienced through Ironman training and how it taught him discipline and perseverance. This episode isn't just for entrepreneurs or environmentalists. It's for anyone interested in living congruently with their values and beliefs. Vinny talks about the importance of being respected and trusted, presenting oneself with strength and dignity, and being effective in leadership.
His passion for sustainability is infectious, and his desire to plant a million coconut trees in the United States is nothing short of ambitious. Throughout the conversation, you'll hear about the benefits of coconut water, the challenges of running a minority-owned business, and the significance of having a strong team. Vinny's ability to connect with people and his drive to make a positive impact on the world are truly inspiring.
Whether you're looking for practical advice on entrepreneurship or a motivational story to lift your spirits, this episode has something for everyone.
