#54 Stories from Inside Mondelēz International's CoLab Program with Pan's Mushroom Jerky & GoNanas

What if you could leverage the resources and experience of one of the largest snack companies in the world to grow your brand? Today we get to hear from two brands who did just that as members the 2022 CoLab cohort by SnackFutures at Mondelēz International. In this episode you'll hear from Brigette Wolf and Jackie Haney from SnackFutures, who are returning guests, and from the co-founders of GoNanas (Annie Slabotsky & Morgan Lerner) & Pan's Mushroom Jerky (Michael Pan & Shannon Lehotsky). It's a lot of voices with a lot of great insights in an episode with the most guests we've ever had on the show at once! Listen in to hear about the experiences of Pan's and GoNanas participating in the program including what they learned, long-term connections they made, and how it's accelerating their growth (including new retail launches, consumer insights, operations mastery), and also hear about the timing of the next cohort, how to apply, and what makes a brand a great fit for the program. SnackFutures is a proud sponsor of Startup CPG.Episode Links:SnackFutures websiteBrigette's LinkedInJackie's LinkedInGoNana's website & IG @go_nanasMorgan's LinkedInAnnie's LinkedInPan's Mushroom Jerky website & IG @mushroomjerkyMichael's LinkedInShannon's LinkedInClip from Pan's Shark Tank episode Link to our other podcast episode with Brigette & Jackie about CoLabShow Links:Join the Startup CPG Slack community (8K+ members and growing!)Follow @startupcpgVisit host Jessi's Linkedin or websiteQuestions or comments about the episode?
