Episode Synopsis "S1 E4 - 4 - Matthew Ruzycki - Alberta Donair - More than a 3am snack!"

Welcome to the 4th episode of the Another Day Building Dreams podcast! A podcast where we explore what supporting local really means and the people behind local small businesses. We hope to shed some real life clarity on what it means when you decide to support your local businesses. We hope to give an idea of what day to day life is like as a small business owner/entrepreneur as well as debunking myths around small businesses. We will be discussing both the struggles and successes with each business venture as well as provide real world tips to those looking to start their very own venture. Today we have Matthew Ruzycki. Business owner and operator of Alberta Donair. A local small business who locally produces and sells at-home donair kits in Edmonton, AB. Matthew is working to redefine donairs, which are traditionally thought of as a 3am craving, into something that is for any time of day by creating quality foods using quality ingredients.  Originally from Camrose, AB Matthew found a love for donairs at age 12. Realizing there was only 1 spot in town to get them he ventured on his own creative endeavor to design his own recipes. This covid-19 pandemic born business has now set this small business owner on a path he never thought he would ever take.  What we discuss: - Matt's background - Origins of donairs - How donair meats are made - Book keeping and accounting practices in small business - Alberta sweet sauce vs east coast sweet sauce - and much more!
