“Winning a NEXTY Award was really kind of our beginning. There was a real hunger for, and a desire to have, food transparency. That idea really resonated.”
–One Degree Organic Foods
“It was cool to be validated, and to see the response from stores afterward—once they started to understand the importance of this new category, and how enthusiastically it was being received by customers. I think our NEXTY award highlighted that for them. And it opened up a lot of opportunity, in terms of shelf space.”
–Farmhouse Culture
“Winning the NEXTY award was great and it gave us a lot of credibility when we were going into meetings with really big retailers.”
