It was not that long ago that Nuts for Cheese™ Founder and CEO, Margaret Coons was juggling school, part-time work, and creating artisan cheese products to sell at the local Farmers Market.
While completing her studies, she took on jobs, invested time and resources to further her skills and product concepts, and even secured early customers for what would eventually become ‘Nuts for Cheese’.
From bootstrapping to raising $5.5M, she now has a leadership team, a 25,000 production facility, and a strategy that positions her company well for long term growth and success.
She is a game-changer in the fast-growing plant-based food market who views her competitors as collaborators, working together to expand new grocery categories.
Hear her share how she combined her interest in wholesome, nutritious food with a passion for culinary creativity and innovation to launch her award-winning business.
