Show Notes

Today’s guest is Mac Anderson, Co-Founder & Chief Commercial Officer at Cleveland Kitchen. Mac and his siblings were raised in a culture of natural foods - their mom is a trained Chef who started a natural food co-op in Ohio way before such things were widespread. Join us as we discuss the origin story and rocket to success of this family business, how they gained retail placement, their acquisition of a pickle-manufacturing plant in CA, and the growth Mac sees continuing and building in the fermented foods category.

Cleveland Kitchen uses the finest ingredients to make the best tasting sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, dressings and marinades. Their kraut, kimchi, and pickles have a delicious crunch thanks to their rustic cut and their dressings and marinades provide a rich, flavor-packed boost of fermented vegetables that is a perfect addition to any meal. Cleveland Kitchen creates world-class culinary fermented foods for all. Fermented foods are regularly consumed within European and Asian cultures and now U.S. consumers can simply (and deliciously) do the same.

The “NexxtLevel Brands Podcast’ is hosted by G. Steven Cleere, Founder and “Chief Pot Stirrer” of NexxtLevel Brands. This show focuses on disruptors and thought-leaders from the Entrepreneurial Food, Beverage, and CPG Industry, but we also share tips from veterans and key suppliers that may help fellow CPG professionals achieve their goals.
