Anita
Nelson
President
B.A. Journalism
University of Minnesota
After several “character building” jobs in the foodservice industry and a few advertising positions where she learned the ropes, Anita struck out to change food marketing for the better. Nearly 25 years later, her extensive knowledge of the food industry and ability to “connect the dots” helps her find the right solutions for our clients. Outgoing and charismatic, she makes every meeting more fun with her contagious laugh.

Foodservice Factoid
Anita’s first job was baking muffins from scratch at a family restaurant. On a typical Saturday she would churn out 600 blueberry muffins! Anita also worked front-of-house throughout college as a server in several restaurants and a country club—all gigs she still remembers fondly.
