Nerdy Nuts
Rapid City, SD

Thanks to viral video after viral video, Craig and Erika Mound couldn’t keep up with orders, so they opened a brick-and-mortar location. With over 716,000 followers and more than 6 million likes to date, Nerdy Nuts has seen unstoppable growth, scaling from $50k annually at local farmers markets to more than $16 million per year. And with this success, they’re giving back to the Rapid City community - creating more than 100 local jobs, and donating hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to local charities.
