Liane Weintraub and Shannan Swanson of Tasty Brand
With
the current obsession with label-reading and organic ingredients,
surely there must be dozens of organic baby food brands, right? That's
what Los Angeles moms (and friends) Liane Weintraub and Shannan Swanson
thought. But they were wrong. The pair started making organic purees for
their own babies and couldn't believe how few options were available in
stores. So Weintraub, 42, a local TV reporter, and Swanson, 38, a
Cordon Bleu-trained chef and former cook at one of Wolfgang Puck's
restaurants, got inspired to fill it. Today the brand is carried at
Whole Foods, Fairway, Tops, and other chains. The company turned a
profit four years after its founding, and it's on track for sales of
$2.5 million this year.
