Margins are often small, a lot of staffing is required, initial capital injections can be very high. So how can we manage that?

Our Guest today are Dustin and Iris, the dynamic duo behind Monument Lifestyle, a local cafe chain with dedicated retail spaces to power local fashion brands like, Jellycat, Duxton and Duxton Kids.
