WHOLE SOL BLEND BAR: 2022
Phil Dumontet started Dashed right after he graduated from Boston College in 2009. It was a few years before on-demand delivery would become ubiquitous, and the idea of food from all kinds of restaurants showing up at your front door—fast—was a novelty in most cities. “From day one,” he recalls, “we said we needed to deliver faster than anyone else.” The Boston-based company expanded to nine cities and had amassed an army of 2,000 drivers before Dumontet sold it to Grubhub in 2017 for an undisclosed sum. • But he wasn’t done. The following year, Dumontet and his nutritionist wife, Alexa Squillaro, founded Whole Sol Blend Bar, a Denver-based chain of smoothie-bowl restaurants. •
