Food Intelligence Ltd

About

Food Intelligence is an independent strategic and technical consultancy founded by fresh produce industry expert Veryan Bliss, helping businesses turn ideas, innovation and complex challenges into practical, commercially successful solutions across food, agriculture and agri-tech.

With more than 30 years of industry experience, Veryan operates from boardroom to supply chain, working as a strategic advisor, Non-Executive Director and Chair. Her experience spans growing and primary production, fresh produce supply chains, food manufacturing, major UK retailers, technology and industry organisations – providing a rare combination of strategic insight, technical understanding and commercial experience.

Food Intelligence works with established businesses, innovators and agri-tech companies to strengthen strategy, accelerate commercial adoption, navigate technical and regulatory complexity, develop sustainability and ESG approaches, improve operational performance and build effective relationships across the supply chain.

A particular strength is helping bridge the gap between innovation and real-world application – understanding what growers, suppliers, retailers and the wider industry actually need, and helping businesses shape solutions that work technically, practically and commercially.

Integrity and independence are fundamental to how we work. We provide pragmatic advice, constructive challenge and an independent perspective, with a focus on creating genuine value and delivering meaningful change rather than simply producing recommendations.

Underpinning this is an exceptional network across farming, fresh produce, retail, research, technology and the wider food industry. Food Intelligence connects businesses with the right people, creates collaborations, opens doors and helps identify opportunities for technologies, products and ideas to gain traction in the marketplace.

Food Intelligence brings together experience, integrity, strategic insight and exceptional industry connections to help good ideas become commercially relevant solutions and ambitious businesses move forward.
