Marcin Niedzielski

Senior Consultant @ Agilery - Food & Beverage Innovation Partner

About

I believe that our food system has just started to undergo profound changes. Entrepreneurs and innovative companies are inventing new products and techniques to tackle imminent global challenges: saving the planet, feeding the population, improving our health. My mission at Agilery is to catalyze this good change in our food system by rethinking contract manufacturing and supply chains: Being a general contractor, we are agile and can pull together the most ideal manufacturing and supply chain setups in Europe, across all product categories and at any given volume scale - fully independent and fully transparent. Consequently, we "democratize" food manufacturing and break with the old standards and innovation hindering sector legacies! Our "raison d'être" is to enable lean product innovation, ensuring a quick time-to-market and low upfront investments for a first sellable pilot production. By building Europe's most complete and smart database of co-manufacturers, suppliers, and service companies across the entire value chain of the food & beverage industry, Agilery creates the digital backbone to support a more efficient and sustainable future.
