With big dreams and a hunger for success, Anita Nelson founded IN Food Marketing & Design to empower food and beverage brands with next-level creative, strategic partnership and an unwavering commitment to setting new standards for what a foodservice marketing agency can truly be.
We specialize in foodservice marketing and design, serving manufacturers distributors in the convenience store (C-store), foodservice and retail food channels. From packaging design and brand development to digital content, trade-promotion strategy, in-store POS and social media for foodservice brands, we are dedicated to making your brand stand out and grow.
Based in Minneapolis and proudly women-owned, our team now consists of thinkers, doers, dreamers, artists, innovators, creators, visionaries and storytellers—all united by our love of food, brand and channel success.

We just got back from @digitalsummits Minneapolis and walked away with pages of notes and tons of inspiration!
It was two incredible days of hearing from industry experts and gaining practical takeaways on AI, B2B marketing, brand strategy, and the future of social media.
We can`t wait to bring back what we learned to our team and clients. #DigitalSummit #DigitalMarketing #MarketingAgency
Good food photography makes you want to reach right through the screen. 📸
That was the goal here: rich color, layered textures, and a spread so full it almost spills off the board. #FoodPhotography #Charcuterie #FoodStyling #FoodMarketing
A great morning well spent!
Last week Beth and Anita volunteered with @thefoodgroupmn, packaging barley to be distributed to families across the Twin Cities.
We`re so grateful for the opportunity to give back through our 2026 Food for All partnership. 💚 #FoodForAll #TheFoodGroup #Volunteering
A food trend can go from "have you seen this?" to "wait, is this already over?" faster than most brands can get a single social media post approved.
Social moves fast. Food content moves even faster. So what`s a food brand supposed to do?
