Testimonials

Michel became one of our first advisors for Nutpods. His vast experience helped us develop our branding strategy and refine our Go-To-Market approach. He is encouraging, kind, knowledgeable and well connected. Food Centricity, through its Food Maker Hub and other resources provided me networking opportunities with other founders and also access to Angel Investors for our company. I am deeply appreciative of Food Centricity’s guidance and encouragement during the formative phase of our
brand’s early beginnings.
— Madeline Haydon, CEO & Founder, Nutpods
We are a start-up consumer package goods company and engaged the services of Michel and the team at Food Centricity to help us launch our business. Food Centricity has been instrumental in our planning on a number of levels. They have helped us formulate a go-to-market strategy, worked closely with us on preparing detailed financial projections for growth, and partnered with us in the preparation of our sales and investor pitch decks. We have found them highly responsive, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with! Their knowledge and experience coupled with a willingness to listen and understand our business has accelerated our development and, we feel, put us on the path that fits our needs and growth potential. I strongly recommend and endorse the work of Food Centricity for any food company
seeking guidance at any stage.
