I found the article from Cornell’s Small Farms Program really insightful, especially when it comes to navigating the challenges of accessing capital for food and beverage enterprises. As someone who has been working in this space, I can definitely relate to the struggle of securing funding.
Access to capital can be one of the toughest hurdles for food and beverage businesses. It’s great to see more support for small farms and emerging brands, but it can still feel like a challenge to get your foot in the door. When it comes to customer service, though, some companies really stand out. For example, I’ve had a good experience with poppi phone number https://www.pissedconsumer.com/company/poppi/customer-service.html when I had questions about their beverages. They were super responsive and helpful. It’s nice when a brand really listens to its customers. Anyone else found a beverage brand with great customer support?
This article is super helpful!
It’s always good to see which companies are doing things right
Good to see Cornell providing this info. I will share it with some folks I know.
