Founder Cohorts
Join a community of ambitious founders and industry experts to master fundraising, boost sales, optimize supply chains, and more.
Feeling Stuck?
You've moved beyond the honeymoon phase of being a founder. Now, you're staring down the real, gritty challenges of growing your brand in a fiercely competitive market. Maybe you've asked yourself:
- "How do I make my brand desirable to investors who are flooded with options?"
- "Where do I start to find new sales channels that actually work for me?"
- "How do I find and create relationships with Comans that won’t end in frustration or lost money?"
You’re not alone. Every founder hits these growth ceilings—but not everyone breaks through.
That’s where our Founder Cohort comes in. This is not just another program; it’s a transformative experience led by industry leaders who've scaled some of the most successful brands in F&B. You'll gain access to exclusive insider knowledge and hands-on guidance designed to push your business past its growth barriers and into the next level.

What our Past Cohort Founders are saying
What a great experience! It's exposure to ALL things you need to know. With a product already in market, I was hesitant to join, but it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
