Loco Coffee
 |
Beverages |
Loco Coffee was founded by Dan and Sean, who wanted to create a better-for-you coffee that people can feel good about drinking. They experimented with various ingredients and discovered that cold brew coffee mixed with coconut water was the perfect combination. Their journey began at a local Boston crossfit competition where they sold out of their first batch of coffee, confirming that there was a demand for healthier coffee options. Over the years, they have continually refined their product to ensure it meets their vision of great taste with simple ingredients. |

Karma Nuts
 |
Snacks |
Karma Nuts was founded by Ganesh Nair, who married his Masters in Health Science & Technology from MIT and 10+ years of diabetes care work with his family's deep legacy in the cashew business. After decades of proliferation in sugary snacks and fried junk food, he saw an opportunity to develop an alternative to the oil-fried cashews that were normally seen on supermarket shelves. Karma Nuts introduced a line of minimally processed cashews, including the Wrapped® cashew (the most delectable, crunchy, and nutritionally-dense cashew) which was developed by the Nair family leveraging their 85+ years of experience in the cashew business. In 2016, the Wrapped cashew was recognized as the “Best New Snack” at the world’s largest Natural Products show, Expo West. Karma Nuts has since developed many flavors of both Wrapped and Roasted (which are the more conventional “skin-less” cashews) cashews, using All-Natural, Non-GMO Project Verified, Vegan, and Kosher ingredients and are available through both online and brick & mortar retailers. |

Fat Kid Cookie Company
 |
Cookies |
Fat Kid Cookie Co was born out of a desire to make life a little brighter. Stephanie Wiley, founder, has always had a passion for baking. She finds solace in the process and relishes in the joy her treats bring to friends and family. Everyone has an inner “fat kid” who feels satisfied from the perfect treat. Close friends and family couldn’t resist Stephanie’s now-famous recipe, and that’s how Fat Kid Cookie Co earned its name. Stephanie’s cookies have something for everyone. An amazing mix of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors are tasted in every bite. They are made by hand in small batches with simple ingredients. Fat Kid Cookie Co became a reality after the tragic death of Stephanie’s son in 2020. Tommy loved life. He preferred to spend his time outdoors, snowboarding, hiking and enjoying nature. He was a loyal friend and had the gift of making people feel seen, and unfortunately he had the disease of addiction. He wanted nothing more than to be sober, went to rehab and achieved just that. He amazingly caught up on all his schoolwork and graduated from high school on time, with his classmates. A week after graduation, Tommy used again and died of fentanyl poisoning. With the isolation from COVID, Tommy didn’t get a chance to live a sober life. Tommy did not want to die and while we do not believe he knew he was taking fentanyl, the hard truth is that one pill can kill. Launching Fat Kid Cookie Company was a way for Stephanie to move forward in her grief and her life, because cookies don't have to be serious! |
