WELCOME TO JUNE WITH
THE BEST OF RALEIGH!
Dear Friends,
June in Raleigh is not easing into summer, it is summer, and the city is showing off in every way.
This month we welcomed two incredible guests on the Best of Raleigh podcast: Chris Knott, founder of Peter Millar, and Joe Graziose Sr. of Veridea in Apex. Chris pulled back the curtain on building Peter Millar and scaling Johnnie-O into a powerhouse, while Joe shared the bold vision behind Veridea, one of the most ambitious developments coming to the Triangle. Two very different stories, both a masterclass in building something that lasts.
We are also proud to share that Best of Raleigh has reached 13,000 followers on Instagram. That milestone belongs to this community, the people who love this city and keep sharing it with their neighbors. Thank you for being part of it.
If you have spent any time with us lately, you have felt the energy. That room of engaged locals is who we put in front of our partners every day, across our media, events, social channels, and a city-wide network of over 250,000 locals who trust Best of Raleigh to guide their lifestyle.
If you want your business in front of this audience through a partnership we would love to talk before our 2026 partner spots fill up. Just reply to this email for more information.
June is going to be a great one, and we cannot wait to share it with you.
Sincerely,
Gretchen Coley
Founder & CEO
