StartUp CPG is where Andy and Kirk met, and how they began their podcasting venture. It's a great company and they help young CPG brands succeed.  They  give young brands the opportunity to shine, elevate it to decision-makers who matter, and connect them to those who have done it before.

Every year, StartUp CPG does their annual Shelfie Awards where they recognize some of the best startups in the business. Kirk & Kurtts was in charge of judging the best brands, and we had four finalist. 

Tend Prenatal:
Tend believes that nourishment comes from food, not a lab. They're taking a pass on the synthetic stuff and going back to Mother Nature.

Coyotas Tortillas:
Coyotas are a delicacy named for their coyote brown color and given a feminine spelling to signify the women who created them.

Damn Right Cocktails:
For a start, up to 5% of our profits go to creating equal access to education and opportunity in your local and global community. Because a good life starts with a great education.
