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!
Based in Berkeley, CA, UPSIDE Foods (formerly known as Memphis Meats) is developing a way to grow real meat, poultry and seafood directly from animal cells, without the need to raise and slaughter animals. These products are not vegetarian, plant-based or meat alternatives -- they are real meat, made without the animal. Founded as the world`s first cultivated meat company in 2015, UPSIDE Foods has achieved numerous industry-defining milestones, including being the first company to produce multiple species of meat (beef, chicken and duck). The company believes that people shouldn`t have to choose between the foods they love and a thriving planet, and is working to build a better food system where everybody has access to delicious, humane, and sustainable meat. UPSIDE Foods has won various industry awards, including New York Times` Good Tech Awards, FastCo`s Next Big Thing in Tech, and the Best and Brightest Companies to Work For in the Nation by the National Association for Business Resources.
