“Startup CPG is THE BEST! Paul and I are new to food and new to CPG so having a tight community who is so engaging is incredible. I get so pumped everytime we have the chance to be a part of an event – in 2022 AWSM Sauce won a Shelfie Award in the Best Condiment category which included a table at an Expo East event and we put on a show!”

“Startup CPG has been instrumental in getting my brand off the ground. I’ve met so many helpful people who fill my knowledge gaps and gained a community of friends who are all going through the same thing. I recommend it to every CPG entrepreneur I meet.”
