The Strategy to Sourcing Ingredients with Ingredient Brothers CEO Eran Mizrahi
Episode description
Sourcing the best ingredients for your good food product has many implications for your business. Eran Mizrahi co-founded Ingredient Brothers to support founders in this process.
Eran grew up watching his father grow a successful import business that was built on integrity and customer service. A South African transplant, Eran started his career at Deloitte, giving him a strong background in finance. He was an early employee at Plated, where he focused on building planning and sourcing programs. He then went on to join Nuts.com, one of the world’s largest nuts and specialty ingredient e-commerce companies. He was quickly elevated to COO and quadrupled the company’s capacity to support growth in 2020. All of this experience led to Ingredient Brothers, where Eran and his team are trying to solve some of the biggest problems he encountered in the food industry.
In this episode, Sarah and Eran connect over their shared buyer and finance experience, building a relationship with your purveyors, and Eran shares an approach to strategically reducing ingredient costs that was spot on and totally new to us!
