Fearless Fabulous You! She Has the Recipe for Building A Successful Food Brand

Building a successful #specialtyfood brand is more than having a dollop and a dream @mightymelanie #fearlessfabulousyou

Are you a dynamo in the kitchen with a dream of cooking up a successful food business? Does everyone tell you one of your signature dishes or a product you make should be packaged, bottled and sold to food hungry-for-new things consumers? According to the National Specialty Food Association sales of specialty foods are at a record high of $109 billion and account for nearly 15 percent of all U.S. retail food sales.

Women are more likely to purchase specialty foods than men, according to a separate report by the Specialty Food Association. Women also appear to be gaining in the production and marketing of specialty foods as well. When I walk the aisles of the annual Summer Fancy Food Show in New York City, coming up June 28-30, I am always impressed by the number of women owned business I find with amazing products.

But having a fabulous food recipe  is one thing. Knowing the recipe for building it into a marketable brand in a highly competitive industry is not easy and takes razor sharp business focus.  There are as many startup failures as there are successes.

Terry Frishman, founder of Culinest, helps food & beverage entrepreneurs strengthen their concepts and move their businesses forward with strategic and tactical assistance. Some of her clients include award- winning brands Sarabeth’s and Chocolate Moderne. Listen to my Fearless Fabulous You! radio interview with Joan Coukos, founder of Chocolate Moderne, here or cut and paste here:https://www.iheart.com/show/209-Fearless-Fabulous-You/?episode_id=27115270

Terry joins me June 22 to discuss what it takes to launch and build a specialty food brand: what you should consider and mistakes to avoid. She’ll explain how she works with companies and will provides some examples of successful products she has launched in her 20-plus year career.
