Description
It can be difficult for alternative protein companies to know the most important customers or partners to build relationships with in the complex food industry landscape. There is a need for resources and services that make it easier to locate, filter, and prioritize sales and partnership efforts. Additionally, startups would benefit from a more direct connection or introduction mechanism to ease the transactional burden of locating the correct point of contact within each company, which would also add value to existing companies looking for new partners, customers, and trends.
