John Wang - The Man Who Built The Queens Night Market (Ep. 299)

The Queens Night Market is one of New York City’s most beloved institutions — but it was never supposed to last more than a year.

John Wang, founder of the Queens Night Market, joins Infinite Loops to explain how a side project with a “terrible business model” unexpectedly became one of the most celebrated food markets in the world. From leaving a traditional legal career to imposing a strict price cap in one of the most expensive cities on earth, John shares how the market evolved into a cultural institution representing more than 100 countries through food.
