Hi, I'm Levi Smith, CEO of Franklin Building Supply, an employee-owned building material supply company headquartered in beautiful Boise, Idaho. I’m a former ranch kid from Texas who found his way to Idaho and into leading this storied company. We’re proud to be part of the fabric of communities we operate in and want to help share stories of other companies doing the same across this great state.
In each episode of Ain’t That Somethin’, I interview founders or leaders about the stories of companies you may be surprised to learn either had their start in Idaho or now call Idaho home. In every interview, you’ll hear about an interesting cast of characters, learn about daunting obstacles, and be inspired by the persistence it took to succeed. Get ready to be surprised and inspired with each episode.
