Food Manufacturer
Here’s some tasty career insight for all you foodies out there: ever dreamt of turning your homemade goodies into a real-deal business? In this episode of Entrepreneur Corner, Mirav sits down with Lisa Protter—CEO and co-founder of Organic Nectars—to talk about her job as a food manufacturer and the wild ride from basement startup to full-on warehouse operation in the Hudson Valley.
Lisa carved out a career in clean, organic, plant-based treats long before “dairy-free” and “raw agave” hit the mainstream. She shares how she scaled her passion project into a thriving business that handles everything in-house—from importing ingredients to manufacturing and distribution. Spoiler: no co-packers, no shortcuts, just pure hustle.
