THE FOODIE
Erica – 22 – Student -Berkeley, CA
“I love food! Eating it, cooking it, and of course
taking photos of it.”
Erica loves going out to eat with her friends and staying in to cook… But she finds herself going to the same restaurants and
cooking the same things over and over again.
THE RESTAURANT
The Blind Pig – San Francisco
“At The Blind Pig, we’re all about the classics:
cherrywood and leather, whiskey, and locally-
sourced ingredients.”
The Blind Pig is a trendy new restaurant in San Francisco that received great reviews… But they are having problems finding
reliable producers and reaching new customers.
THE PRODUCER
Greene Brothers Organic Produce – Sonoma, CA
“Greene Brothers is committed to sustainability,
community, and quality of our produce.”
Greene Brothers Organic Produce is a small-scale, family-owned organic farm with awesome products… But they struggle with online visibility and want to expand their client-base, potentially beyond the
service industry.
With Munchable…
Erica can find a cool new restaurant when she wants to go out with friends, and find a cool new recipe for when she wants to stay in.
The Blind Pig can grow their business and connect with awesome local producers.
Greene Brothers can build their community by connecting with more businesses and individuals.
