ST. LOUIS, Mo. (First Alert 4) - Mike Evans didn’t start off with the dream of running a cookie empire, but that’s the goal he’s currently building on each and every day.

He grew up surrounded by the food world but it wasn’t the path he took originally. But a desire for entrepreneurship and discovery on the internet about the possibility of warm cookies straight from a vending machine launched his company, Alibi Cookies. It started with that unique idea. A vending machine that serves up the perfect cookie for your snacking needs. Then it grew to a brick-and-mortar, the first location in Dogtown. From there, it continues to grow – all within just a few short years. We sat down with Mike to discuss the journey and his advice for other young entrepreneurs. Hope you’re hungry because there’s a lot of cookie chatter in this conversation.

Locations in Dogtown, Kirkwood, Edwardsville and Statesville, NC. You can find the vending machine in Dogtown and Rolla, Mo.
