Supply.co Founder on Life after the Sale

Patrick Coddou’s entrepreneurial journey is impressive. In 2015 he launched Supply, a direct-to-consumer seller of razors and shaving goods, and then sold the business in 2022. He conceived the idea, hired staff, scaled revenue, and exited profitably.

His journey is incomplete, however. His talents apply to seemingly any industry, but his identity for years was tied to Supply. He’s now adjusting and charting his next moves.

Patrick is among the most popular guests on this podcast, starting in 2020 and followed by appearances in 2021, April 2022, and October 2022. In this recent conversation, he shares his post-Supply life, the emotions of stepping away, and looking forward.

Our entire audio is embedded below. The transcript is edited for length and clarity.

Eric Bandholz: Update us on what you’ve been up to.

Patrick Coddou: It’s been quite a journey.
