#33 – Chris Kerr, the Original Vegan Investor, on Shaping a New Food Industry

Eat For The Planet with Nil Zacharias

Chris Kerr is one of the first people to help funnel early-stage investments for vegan food companies. In the early 2000s, he worked with the Humane Society of the United States to manage their investments into the plant-based food industry and played a key role in helping Daiya cheese secure distribution in Whole Foods Market. With New Crop Capital, Chris is helping some of the top brands that we know and love through investment funding as well as mentorship, all with the goal of advancing plant-based food and reshaping the food system.
