In this interview, Tyler discusses: • The ‘dark undersides’ of the American food industry that he’s witnessed • How he helped Boca Burger (Kraft Heinz’s veggie burger) go from $7M to $50M in revenue over 3.5 years • Why he segued from impact investor to starting his own company • Why Cool Beans launched with frozen products – and the new technology of freezing that keeps products fresh • What ‘digital demos’ are and why he prefers them to in-store demos • Why the company is not creating its own online store • His predictions for the future of the vegan and plant-based sector • And more Visit the Cool Beans website RESOURCES: My Online PR Course for Vegan Business Owners & Entrepreneurs: Vegans in the Limelight My book Vegan Ventures: Start and Grow an Ethical Business Follow Vegan Business Media on: Facebook   Twitter  Instagram  Connect with me personally at: Facebook  Twitter  LinkedIn
