Goldman Sachs Talks

Monique Rodriguez, Founder and CEO, Mielle Organics

Monique Rodriguez, founder and CEO of Mielle Organics, discusses her journey launching and scaling her business.  

On the role of a successful entrepreneur: I don’t believe in a saturated market.  I feel that in any industry, in any market that you are entering in, there is always something that someone is not doing. And your job is to figure out what that thing is and to be able to fill that void.

On plans to scale her company: I see my company in the next two to three years as being the number one black-owned company. We are the number one fastest growing black-owned company, but we’re aiming for that number one spot.
