The podcast for curious food industry minds, hosted by Julia Glotz. Every week, Julia is joined by an expert guest to discuss the big news, trends and developments shaping food and grocery retail right now.
Julia is joined by Vishal Patel, co-founder of Sollasa, an up-and-coming spirits brand developed specifically to go with Indian food. Vishal is also investment director at Distill Ventures.
He talks to Julia about the growth in low and no alcohol options and what's behind young people moderating their drinking, his journey with Sollasa and why he’s pursuing a food-first strategy for his brand, how to justify the price of lower-alcohol options vis-à-vis full-strength drinks - and the ongoing challenge of how to increase diversity and inclusion in the drinks industry.
