Our Approach to CPG

We’re involved from the very beginning of launching and growing a successful CPG food business. We leverage our experience, networks, and manufacturing infrastructure across the packaged good industry to scale brands efficiently and effectively.

Four Phases to Build to Last

LAUNCH • PRODUCT MARKET FIT • GROWTH • SCALE

Our Accelerator works through four phases to help build food businesses that last: Launch, Product Market Fit, Growth, and Scale.

Phase One Launch: Establish the building blocks on which successful food businesses are built

Phase Two Product Market Fit: Determine how to deliver a product that customers want

Phase Three Growth: Expand a product line nationally that has achieved regional product market fit

Phase Fourth Scale: Achieve national market penetration by outselling the category leader across multiple channels

Our Manufacturing Infrastructure

KITCHEN • DISTRIBUTION • STORES

Our Manufacturing Infrastructure of Kitchen, Distribution, and Stores provides the platform to build and grow a company, while also lowering the need for additional capital investment. We build to last by bringing together our Accelerator with access to our Manufacturing Infrastructure.

Kitchen: Manufacturing food is challenging. It’s also what makes food companies great. Manufacturing creates defensibility, allows you to dictate the quality of your products, innovate faster, and control your inventory. Develop your expertise in manufacturing in our USDA Organic and USDA-Meat Inspected production facility.

Distribution: We manage the logistics of selling into stores, driving early revenue to your business, and collecting feedback from our retail partners so you can achieve product market fit even faster.

Stores: Our Stores connect products made in our Accelerator directly with consumers and compares the result to national category leaders. We get to learn faster and iterate towards what people want through sales data and anecdotal feedback.
