'At 23, Larissa Russell co-founded a healthy vegan cookie company called Green Pea Cookies, but even though customers wanted the cookies… they couldn’t get them on major grocery shelves because of high food distributor costs. That’s when she and her cofounder decided to shut down Green Pea Cookies and start Pod Foods (https://podfoods.co/), the only food distributor designed for startup food brands.
