The Market Entry (TMEF) is a nonprofit that supports CPG food startups in Minnesota. Its core mission is to enable equitable participation in the market place, by traditionally marginalized and underrepresented entrepreneurs, who are in food production and manufacturing. In short, these are the makers of local food and beverage who want to get into the CPG market. TMEF serves and enables them through business and technical supports along with micro-grants, and public education and advocacy.
