FOOD WITH THOUGHT
Transforming Vision Into Food solutions
Contemporary Food Service
Food with Thought is a holistic food consulting service focused on building a long term sustainable system.
Creative Intentions
The food web, from agriculture to processing to retail, is in the middle of a significant shift that will result in new formats and concepts, impacting the entire supply chain.
The Mechanics of Operations
Agriculture will have to shift towards regenerative practices to restore the soil back to health. Consumers are demanding nutrient rich foods free of synthetic fertilziers and pesticides, hormones and antibiotics. A shift towards more plant based recipes, best expressed in the Mediterranean diet, with smaller portion sizes of animal based proteins, is already well under way.
From Ideation to Developed Concepts For new or existing businesses we provide operational and concept consulting to operators who are in need to define their position and their product in a rapidly changing market.
Anticipating where the market is going will be the key to long term success and survival.
