About this Event

Boston, we're running it back with another Grocery Run at BevNET HQ this fall! Join us and Whole Foods Market for a panel and evening of mixing & mingling!

What do you get when you combine brand founders, retail buyers, and Startup CPG? Grocery Run - a U.S. tour to get inside the mind of local retail buyers - all tailored to Startup CPG’s community. Join us for a panel featuring buyers, and then mix and mingle to network while enjoying brand samples. Even if you aren’t sampling, bring product with you to show the buyers!

Panel Location: BevNET HQ in Newton, MA

Founders, have you ever wondered:

  • What does it take to get onto the shelves at Whole Foods?
  • How to work with the Principal Forager for local & emerging brands in the Northeast Region?
  • How does Whole Foods identify new brands for their selection?

AND MORE!



Come meet these featured guests from the Whole Foods Northeast team:

  • Holly Long, Local & Emerging Brands Principal Forager


And meet these other VIPs as well:

  • Melissa Traverse, BevNET


Here are the amazing brands sampling at this event:
