Propeller’s 2021 Impact Accelerator program features four Black food entrepreneurs navigating the consumer-packaged goods industry.
The consumer-packaged-goods industry has grown considerably since the start of the pandemic, as eating habits shifted away from dine-in food service to meals prepared and eaten at home.
The focus on consumer-packaged goods follows propeller’s recent food manufacturing partnership with Greater New Orleans, Inc., Edible Enterprises and St. Charles Parish, the New Orleans Business Alliance, University of Holy Cross, Volunteers of America, Xavier University, and the Louisiana Small Business Development Center. It aims to grow the region’s food manufacturing industry.
The Impact Accelerator is a four-month program to provide entrepreneurs with coaching, community building, and technical assistance.
