MIAMI, Fla., July 17, 2020 – CEO Coaching International, the leading firm coaching over 300 of the world’s top growth-focused entrepreneurs, congratulates its client Denise Tran, CEO and Founder of Bun Mee, on being named 2020 Entrepreneur of the Year by the San Francisco Chapter of Entrepreneur’s Organization (EO).
The EO Entrepreneur of the Year Award program creates a platform to recognize and honor key entrepreneurs who contribute to society by creating value that generates employment and stimulates the economy. The program provides entrepreneurs a platform to gain local, regional and global visibility, generating interest from investors and partners.
“I am so humbled and honored to be recently named the Entrepreneur of the Year 2020. Years ago I left a career in law to take a risk and follow a dream to create a branded, gourmet Vietnamese fast casual sandwich concept that combines innovative, chef driven sandwiches, a culture around treating our customers and employees like family, and thoughtful branding that incorporates eye-catching art. Our vision was to be a pioneer in a sandwich niche that didn’t exist in the country at the time. Since then, we have received local and national awards and recognition. However, personally this award means so much to me because it is recognition by my peers who understand this journey and it gives further validation that I made the right decision to follow my dreams.” Tran remarked in response to the award. “I am doing what I love to do, despite how challenging these times are currently, I will continue to keep my head down and work one day at a time to build the company that I’ve always dreamed of… and do it with integrity. Thank you again to EO San Francisco and special thanks to those who nominated me for this award.”
Denise’s Coach at CEO Coaching International, Jerry Swain, commented, “I’m so proud of Denise and her well-deserved recognition. It has been a privilege to work with her and see her inspiration and dedication in action!”
“Jerry has been phenomenal in quickly identifying my weak spots, helping me navigate each situation by honing in on what’s important, sharing industry knowledge, connecting me with the folks that can help me, and providing thoughtful strategic counsel every step of the way,” Tran mentioned. “He has become a true partner with me through these trying times and has gone above and beyond to do whatever he can to help us through this. I’m so grateful to Jerry and his team.”
