Solve For Food is a new food processing innovation startup headed by some longtime food and beverage veterans. When former EVP of Sam’s Club Greg Spragg was approached by some of his former colleagues to be president and CEO of Solve For Food, he was happy to do it. Spragg, who retired in 2008, saw the food startup as a tremendous opportunity for helping small, medium and large enterprises to process food, develop recipes and new products.
“Big food companies have become less and less nimble to move quickly into new technology and new ideas,” he says. “Many of them are purchasing smaller, more innovative companies to create their innovation.”
