EPISODE NOTES

In this episode, Peter sits down with Joel Burgess, Founder of Nutrifix, a nutrition app that locates nearby healthy meals which are tailored to an individual body’s needs and dietary requirements. In November 2016, just before launching, Nutrifix was one of the first start-ups to join the Just Eat Food Tech Accelerator programme, which provided the team with 10 weeks of intensive mentoring, in addition to a £20,000 investment into the business. In March 2017, Nutrifix launched and succeed with a crowfunding campaign on Crowdcube, raising £200,000. This fuelled the initial growth and success, and within the first year, Nutrifix built up over 5,000 users and had acquired data for almost 5,000 meals from over 9,000 locations and 90 vendors. Although still a relatively young business, Joel has built a strong foundation and is achieving some very positive traction for the business. Enjoy!
