Buffalo, N.Y. (WBEN) – A Buffalo company was among the big winners at this year’s 43North business startup competition.

FoodNerd, a food technology company based in Buffalo that hopes to change the way shelf-stable foods are processed, took home not only one of the $1 million grand prizes, but also the $25,000 People’s Choice Award.

“We’ve developed a really fun way of making shelf-stable products that retain all of the incredible nutrients and make the deliciously disguised so people can get all their fruits and veggies in fun ways,” said FoodNerd CEO Sharon Cryan. “We’re able to condense a ton of fresh fruit and vegetables and mega-foods into these little bite-sized pieces. That way they eat like an ultra-processed food, but really you’re just eating your fruits and veggies.”

Winners of the 43North competition must make Buffalo their headquarters for at least one year. For Cryan, already based in Buffalo, it means expanding operations.
