BevNET is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Naturally San Diego, a community of local CPG businesses aiming to make greater San Diego the new nexus of natural products entrepreneurship.
As a partner, BevNET seeks to expand its support of local CPG founders and the growth of their companies. With more than 560 Naturally San Diego members representing 260+ companies in the area, BevNET plans to build a deeper connection with the local natural products community by hosting local meetups, collaborating on networking events, and being a resource to both Naturally San Diego and the local community.
“Partnering with BevNET is an exciting evolution for Naturally San Diego. We’re thrilled to collaborate with BevNET to continue to foster the growth of the local natural products and CPG community. We will work together to create programs that bring value to our members and sponsors, while highlighting BevNET’s West Coast Branch presence in San Diego. This partnership aligns with both organizations efforts to serve San Diego natural products brands. -Adam Hertel, Board Member at Naturally San Diego and CSO at Rudi’s Rocky Mountain Bakery
