BONUS — Fable Food takes on more investment as mushroom meat makes it into fast food chains
Manage episode 349477379 series 2887867
Remember when Michael Fox first joined us on Curveball? He’d clawed his way back from a bruising collapse of his first start-up Shoes of Prey to build a new company.
Fable Foods creates a meat-alternative from shiitake mushrooms and Michael and his co-founders had convinced celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal to be part of their journey.
But Covid had hit and Michael wasn’t sure his newly-established food manufacturing plant would survive the pandemic.
Michael Fox is the ultimate optimist and since he last joined us on season 1 of Curveball, he’s secured more investment, scaled up his company, and now expanded into several fast food chains.
