 A FOUNDER COMMUNITY AND ACCELERATOR PROGRAM FOR INNOVATIVE BUSINESSES AND VISIONARY FOUNDERS DISRUPTING THE FOOD AND FOODSERVICE INDUSTRY

OUR MISSION IS TO HELP GROW COMPANIES THAT ARE DISRUPTING THE FOODSERVICE INDUSTRY

Food Foundry, a founder community and accelerator program built in collaboration with Relish Works and Gordon Food Service, advances innovative businesses who are reshaping the food and foodservice industry. From early-stage innovators to established industry leaders, Food Foundry cultivates a dynamic ecosystem of support through strategic investment, network access, guidance, and tailored programming. 

WE SUPPORT YOU IN THREE WAYS

01

We provide 1:1 introductions to our extensive network of investors and venture capitalists, and connections to other funding opportunities to help our founders secure the financial support they need to thrive.

02

We facilitate connections for our founders to national foodservice business resources, offering specialized programming and access to exclusive events. Food Foundry also provides 1:1 support to our dedicated mentors, in-house entrepreneurs-in-residence, and Food Foundry's wider network of investors and industry experts.

03

We organize a variety of events and workshops that bring together founders, like-minded entrepreneurs, experienced mentors, startups, and industry leaders in one of the most vibrant startup hubs in the nation, Chicago, Illinois.
