About Guest

Daniel Shemtob

Daniel Shemtob is a serial entrepreneur – whose journey began with nothing more than a dollar and a dream. Despite skipping college – Daniels success was never hindered by a lack of traditional education. Like many younger people – daniel chose differently.
After a few startup attempts – Daniel caught his first big break in 2010 with The original Lime Truck and then expanded into multiple trucks in multiple cities. Lime Truck is a food truck that delivers fresh food to the masses – from those stuck in office cubicles to those who are  too busy to eat at a restaurant.
Daniel’s success began to skyrocket and the local buzz he generated secured an invite to participate in the Food Network series “The Great Food Truck Race” – where he won first place in season 2 and was quoted in Yahoo’s “Top 10 Trucks in America” 3 years running. Daniel proceeded to open 3 brick and mortar locations called The Lime Truck—TLT Food—across LA and the Orange County  before the age of 27.
Upon the success of The Food Truck – Daniel further pursued his ambition as a cook and opened a Japanese Yakitori restaurant in Downtown LA called Hatch Yakitori.
But Daniel’s journey as an entrepreneur didn’t stop there. He partnered with Dr. Snibbe – a renowned Orthopedic Surgeon in Los Angeles – to launch Snibbs: A universal work shoe designed for use by anyone who is on their feet for long periods of time.
The typical work shoe has not been reinvented or rethought. Instead – major footwear companies continue manufacturing the same shoes over and over again. Snibbs broke down every element of their hoe and solved the problem from a holistic perspective – creating a new type of shoe for the workplace.
