Interview with聽Jennifer Peters, Founder and Foodie
Q: How did you get involved in this business?
础:听It kind of found me. I was looking to close the gap between who I am and what I do. I came from a corporate marketing background, and after working on this idea as part of a class project while earning my MBA at Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management, my teachers encouraged me to pursue it. It was the perfect marriage of business and what I believe.
Q: What distinguishes you from other businesses in your category?
础:听We are the only fast-casual paleo restaurant in Denver, and I think we are one of the only 100% gluten free, full-scale restaurants (There are a lot of Gluten Free bakeries, or places not serving a full menu). We are also trying to be at the intersection of both healthy food and a space that has a sense of wellness and mindfulness.
Q: What do you like best about your line of work?
础:听When people understand and appreciate what we鈥檙e trying to achieve with the concept, it抖阴ap so gratifying. I always get choked up when someone tells me thank you for providing safe place for them to eat (given their food allergies or health limitations).
Q: What is your business鈥� biggest challenge?
础:听There’s a level of education that a paleo or Gluten-Free menu can taste delicious and be healthful at the same time. Plus, ensuring that I鈥檓 working on the business versus in the business.
Q: Something people might be surprised to learn about you or your business:
础:听I guess the fact that this was an outcome from a simple class project while getting my MBA. I never thought that being a restaurateur was in my future, but it really is a great business and a wonderful place to nourish the soul.
