A teenager with cerebral palsy is building a hot sauce empire.
KMOX News introduced you to Drew Davis last summer as he was producing his first bottles of Crippling Hot Sauce. "I saved up for 15 years of my life 3 grand and I'm lucky to say it's turned into way more."
Crippling Hot Sauce is on fire, expanding from three original retailers to 97 in just seven months. His latest agreement is with Dierbergs. He's sold 17,000 bottle of sauce so far.
His family had to turn over production to a manufacturing facility because they couldn't keep up. Drew has contracted with three regional distributors across Missouri now to ship his products.
He recent traveled to Washington DC to tell lawmakers what could make it easier for people with disabilities to launch businesses.
