I co-founded The Barons Meat Company in 2013 with a mission to revolutionize the way Canadians access high-quality, ethically-raised meat. By establishing direct connections between consumers and small, ethical farms throughout British Columbia, The Barons provided a robust subscription delivery service that enabled customers to vote with their dollars for better farming practices while enjoying the convenience of home delivery.During my time as the Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer, I spearheaded the company's marketing efforts, helping to drive growth and increase brand awareness. Our innovative approach to the meat industry allowed us to send hundreds of thousands of dollars per year in support of small farms throughout BC.In December 2017, The Barons was acquired by our long-time friend and healthy competitor, Meatme.ca. We were thrilled with Meatme's shared passion for transforming the meat industry in Canada and were confident that, with the acquisition of The Barons, Meatme would be well-positioned to further disrupt the traditional meat supply chain, directing more funds to smaller, ethically run farms committed to raising animals the right way.
