Taking the Stage at NOSH LIVE Winter 2024

Unlocking Growth in Challenging Times: Rudi’s Leaders to Share Strategies at Nosh Live


Founders come into the food business with great ideas, incredible energy, and are fast saddled with the everyday chaos that is running their business and battling for survival. It sometimes takes years to find the patterns in customer feedback and retail fit, and the products needed to unlock growth.

Attendees of Nosh Live Winter 2024 in Marina del Rey, Calif., will learn to lop time off of that waiting game when they hear from two brilliant entrepreneurs on the ways they have found high-impact growth opportunities within challenging periods of company development.

Jane Miller and Justin Gold, two well-known CPG innovators who are now leading the revitalization of Rudi’s Rocky Mountain Bakery, will take the stage to discuss their methods for finding the thread of growth within choppy waters.

As CEO of Rudi’s (again!), Miller is orchestrating a turnaround that sees the business reversing multi-year declines and expanding beyond the bread aisle. Gold, the founder of Justin’s – and more recently Chief Innovation and Strategy Officer at Rudi’s – is overseeing efforts to enter new segments with value-add frozen product lines.

Miller’s track record includes the revenue acceleration and sale of Lily’s Sweets; during her three years at the helm the brand grew from $18 million to more than $100 million in revenue and was acquired by The Hershey Company for $425 million.

Gold scaled his eponymous nut butter snacking startup from the Boulder Farmers Market to its $286 million sale to Hormel Foods Corporation.

The pair will offer perspective and hard-earned wisdom from a combined six decades plus of packaged food industry experience.
