  From Losing His House to €6M in Revenue This Year Selling Unique Infant Formula - with Frank Dekker, Founder of Pure Goat

  Sep 29, 202648 min

  To start a business in the most regulated corner of the food industry, Frank Dekker says you need one thing above all: be naive. Because if you knew the war zone waiting for you, you'd never begin. In this episode of Tomorrow's Bites, we sit down with Frank Dekker, founder of Pure Goat, to trace how a father who quit his dairy-industry job a month after having his son built an organic goat-milk infant formula that will hit 6 million euros in revenue this year. This is not a clean success story. It's the one where he sold his house, faced bankruptcy before he'd sold a full batch, and lost everything he put into the Middle East in six months. Frank knew what went into the formula he was feeding his own baby. He didn't like it. So he found the smartest person he could, stripped a standard formula down to its bones, and rebuilt it: goat instead of cow, organic, milk fat kept in instead of swapped for palm oil, omega from algae instead of the eyeball of a fish sold off as fishery waste. In this conversation, Frank reveals what those seven years actually cost: Why he had to promise farmers and factories more than he could deliver, and how he lived for five years with people telling him he'd broken those promises The 15 factories that said no, and the one man in Austria, Stefan, whose single yes unlocked the whole business Why his first production run cost 400,000 to 500,000 euros, sold only 150,000 in year one, and left him staring at a batch he might have to destroy The customer he assumed he had, wealthy aware parents, and who actually turned out to buy Why a declining birth rate is his biggest opportunity, not his biggest threat The one thing regulation forbids him from saying about his own product, even with the words "in my opinion" attached And why he refuses to expand into any category other than goat: he wants to be the goat of the goats And much more...

  The Founder Secret Nobody Posts About: Shrinking Universes and Toxic Positivity with Andres Jara Co-founder Favamole

  Sep 22, 202642 min

  What happens to your business when your world quietly shrinks and you're too busy performing optimism to notice? In this episode of Tomorrow's Bites , we check back in with Andres Jara , founder of Favamole , for his latest building-in-public update and this one goes somewhere most founder content refuses to go. After the Kitchen Republic fire, a change of homes, and months of working in isolation, Andres found himself caught in what he calls "toxic positivity": telling himself everything was fine, while his universe — and the energy that drives his business, was slowly collapsing inward. It took a conference in Germany and a solo walk through the mountains of Spain to break the pattern. What came back wasn't just motivation. It was clarity. We explore: Why "toxic positivity" is one of the most dangerous traps for early-stage founders and how to spot it before it hollows you out How Andres rebuilt his content strategy from scratch: four pillars, a muscle-building mindset, and finally posting as himself again The signal vs. noise filter that's now running every decision from trade show applications to investor meetings to LinkedIn DMs Why random strangers on the internet cheer you on while your closest friends ask why you're doing this Why "if it's not a hell yes, it's a hell no" and how learning to say no is building the company faster than saying yes ever did What's coming next: a rebrand, a retail push, a new flavor, international retailers, and a SIAL debut Yesss, another build an public. Number 11. Next one is special a one-year anniversary, don't miss that one. :) -Best, Andrés & Sjacco

  How a 21-Year-Old Is Building the Gut-Friendly Chocolate Brand Targeting a $93B Market - Daniel Berlin Founder of DIRTY GUT

  Sep 15, 202653 min

  What does it take to challenge a $93 billion industry — when you're 21 years old, studying entrepreneurship by day, and sourcing cacao from Africa by night? In this episode of Tomorrow's Bites , we sit down with Daniel Berlin , founder of DIRTY GUT — a gut-friendly chocolate brand built on a simple but radical premise: chocolate is actually healthy. It's just what a century of big food companies have done to it that isn't. Armed with four probiotic strains, three prebiotic fibers, coconut sugar, and a name so uncomfortable it's impossible to forget, Daniel is coming for the legacy brands — the ones making "milk chocolate" with 11% cacao and calling it food. He started this at 21. He's 22 now. He already has paying customers, a co-manufacturer, direct relationships with ethically sourced cacao farms in Africa, and an investor meeting scheduled for right after this conversation. We explore: Why a Hershey bar is legally allowed to contain only 11% cacao — and what that says about a century of consumer deception in the chocolate aisle How Daniel built his first advisor network entirely through cold emails sent from a college student address — and why most of them said yes The name nobody wanted: why "DIRTY GUT" was rejected, ignored, and then impossible to get out of his head — just like Liquid Death Why chocolate is actually one of the best delivery mechanisms for live probiotics — and why most probiotic supplements on the market barely work What the Olipop and Poppi playbook looks like applied to chocolate — and whether the category is ready for the same shift that happened to soda Why he's managing a multi-continent ingredient supply chain from an Excel sheet — and what he's building to replace it this summer And much more...

  The Part That Listeners Didn't Skip: Why This Tea Founder Refuses to Buy Anything He Hasn't Tasted at the Farm - from our conversation with Sergey Shevelev, Founder Moychay International

  Sep 8, 202612 min

  Sergey Shevelev learned Chinese so he could skip the middleman. Before smartphones, he communicated with his first tea supplier through broken English and clunky translation software. Then he went further. He left the markets behind and went straight to the farms, the fields, the forests. His rule is simple: he only buys tea he has tasted himself at the factory. Today he works with 25 to 30 farmers growing wild tea from plantations left unfertilized for decades, some from trees over a thousand years old. With Sergey, founder of Moychay International, we cover what quality really means, why clean soil comes first, and why the right technologist makes or breaks a product. In 13 min you learn how sourcing at origin builds a tea brand worth trusting.Listen to the full conversation ⁠ here⁠ .

  The Secret Retail Tactics This Ex-Category Manager is Using To Sell Healthy Cocoa Spreads in Every Supermarket - with Co-Founder of Orthonia, Olivier Laporta

  Sep 1, 202657 min

  For years, Olivier sat in the comfortable chair. As a category manager at Delhaize, he was the one giving suppliers a thumbs up or thumbs down, deciding what made it onto the shelf. Now he's on the other side of the table, sending emails that go unanswered for three weeks, waiting on a single order that his cash flow depends on. In this episode of Tomorrow's Bites, we sit down with Olivier Laporta, co-founder of Orthonia, to unpack what it actually takes to put a healthier cacao spread on a shelf already owned by one of the most beloved brands in the world. In this conversation, Olivier reveals what the two sides of the shelf taught him: The four P framework a category manager uses to decide your fate, and why your margin can kill you before your product ever gets tasted Why the same power he once held now feels horrible from the supplier's seat How he and Katharina bought machines, drove a small truck to a factory, and started producing themselves, then spent a 30-degree summer day under a broken machine to save a single order Why keeping production in-house is a pain that's also their protection against copycats The uncomfortable Nutri-Score A line they refuse to cross, even when a B would be easier The rebrand and the investor warning about calling something chocolate when there's no cocoa butter inside Why organic ingredients here cost three times conventional, not the usual 15%, and the split-range decision that tension is forcing This is a conversation about power, margins, shelf life, and the unglamorous mechanics of getting a better product into someone's hands. If you're building a food brand and trying to crack retail, this is the episode to hear before your first buyer meeting. Share it with a founder about to pitch a category manager.
