Food Finance Institute Trained Consultants

Level 1 Training Participants

Level 1 Training Participants were trained in current market trends in the sector, the basics of conducting market research, various business models in food (and their accompanying metrics/capital structure) as well as in-depth case studies of business model optimization.

Level 2 Training Participants

Level 2 Training Participants were trained in the process of raising appropriate debt, strategic investments, and equity investments in food, beverage and value-added farm businesses. This included a discussion of the legal, financial and governance prerequisites to and implications of raising equity.

Our Premier Consultants have successfully completed a project, like a fundraising request for a food, beverage or value-added agriculture business with Tera Johnson, FFI director and founder of teraswhey®, to earn this certification.
