Health-Ade Kombucha

Health-Ade Kombucha was founded in 2012 by Daina Trout, her husband Justin, and best friend Vanessa Dew, with a tiny credit card and a big dream: to brew the best tasting and highest quality kombucha you can buy. They stop at nothing to make real food and real kombucha, like ferment 100% in glass to prevent plastic and metal leaching, produce in super-small 2.5 gallon batches for premium quality, and flavor only with the highest quality ingredients possible, like raw cold-pressed juice from organic produce. Los Angeles-based Health-Ade is proud to be certified organic, non-GMO, kosher, vegan, raw, and gluten-free, and currently has 13 delicious flavors distributed across 6,000+ stores nationwide. The company has quadrupled in size each year since its inception and is thrilled to be one of the fastest growing and top performing national brands in the marketplace. No matter how much Health-Ade expands, they will never compromise on quality and will remain true to their original mission: to inspire others to do what they have successfully learned to do in business—FOLLOW YOUR GUT!

Chartwells Higher Education Dining Services

It is my great pleasure to share that Chartwells has re-positioned its brand for a new generation and beyond. This new identity was built upon understanding our new audience, Generation Z, which has replaced Millennials on college campuses. With its extreme affinity for technology, Generation Z is described by thought leaders as `over-connected, yet under-related`. Research suggests that brands promoting high-intensity relationships will be the key to preparing Gen Z students for the future. Our dining programs bring students together and serve as centers of academic life on the campuses we serve. Our investment creates social spaces. Our cuisine nourishes and inspires. If college is about sharing big ideas and discovering new people, then Chartwells is the center of a vibrant academic life. We`re chefs, interaction facilitators and food enthusiasts with a knack for drawing people together. Through our cuisine, community, talent, global resources and flexibility, we have the power to nourish and inspire. Our new mission is to be the place where hungry minds gather.
