Today we’re chatting with a true food pioneer, Patrick Smith, who is on a crusade to make wellness a sustainable, scalable business model that celebrates local flavors, local chefs, local ingredients, and small carbon footprints – one meal at a time.

“Helping people make the connection between food and health is one of the biggest challenges of the century.” –Patrick Smith

Patrick is the Founder and CEO of Territory Foods, and he’s using his expertise from the software space to develop a unique food delivery platform that’s doing more than just saving people time by providing delicious, ready-to-eat meals. It’s also increasing sustainability, reducing food waste, and fighting the chronic illnesses that accompany nutritionally incomplete diets (and cause Americans to waste millions of dollars every year).

So what can you expect when you order from Territory Foods? Local artisan chefs using fresh, local ingredients and assembling nutritional meals within minutes of their final destination. It is currently available near D.C., Dallas, Southern California, or the Bay Area.

“40 percent of the U.S. population is a member of a food tribe.” –Patrick Smith

We also discuss:

  • What is a food tribe?
  • The catalyst for starting Territory Foods
  • Restaurants aren’t optimized for diet, they’re optimized for taste
  • How the business model reduces food waste
  • Aligning customer health & planetary health
  • Why Territory has different menus in different areas of the country
  • How ordering your meals on Territory works
  • Why Patrick gives customers the option to purchase a la carte or by subscription
  • Who makes up the local Territory Food teams
  • How Territory uses data to optimize the service
  • Patrick’s previous life as a social worker

“You start with culture, then you start with values, then you build a product, then you build a business.” –Patrick Smith
