Our Why
Building the network that didn't exist—until now
Females in Food was founded by Angela Dodd after she experienced firsthand what so many women in F&B face: isolation, limited sponsorship, and few seats at the table.
Angela envisioned a different reality—one where women across the entire food system could connect, collaborate, and champion each other. Since launching in 2019, FIF has grown to 3,000+ talent network representing every corner of the industry.
Why this matters
When women have access to the right network, mentorship, and opportunities, we don’t just advance our own careers—we transform the entire industry.
Stay in the know and never miss out on the latest industry insights, events, and opportunities by signing up for the Females in Food newsletter.
