I want to use the Shoutout section to give props to our friends at PeakBridge and their “Deep Dive / Food Service” insights.
PeakBridge calls it “The Invisible Giant,” and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. The largest, most overlooked force in food isn’t restaurants or CPG, it’s foodservice as a daily infrastructure layer powering how people actually eat (offices, schools, hospitals, travel hubs, and everything in between).
This isn’t just a channel, it’s a massive, fragmented, under-digitized ecosystem hiding in plain sight. And that’s exactly why it’s investable. While venture dollars chase consumer brands and shiny AI wrappers, the real opportunity sits upstream in the systems that feed millions daily, quietly, consistently, and at scale.
The takeaway from PeakBridge’s quarterly newsletter: The next wave of FoodTech winners won’t just win the consumer, they’ll win the infrastructure behind consumption.
Or put differently: the biggest opportunity in food isn’t what’s on the plate, it’s everything that gets it there.
This PeakBridge quarterly newsletter was written by Dr. Gali Artzi, Nurit Ben, Nadav Berger, Tom Nicholson, and Peter Bodenheimer. It also included contributions from some of our favorite folks in industry, including our own Schatzy.
