About Angela and the start of Females in Food
In 2019, I came across a statistic that shook me: 80% of food buying decisions globally are made by women, yet less than 24% of senior leadership positions in the food and beverage industry are held by women. This wasn’t just a number to me; it was a glaring reflection of an industry that needed change.
With over 15 years of experience in the F&B industry, I knew firsthand the countless “papercuts” women endure—those subtle but persistent barriers that erode visibility, breed insecurity, and perpetuate a lack of parity and retention. I couldn’t ignore it any longer.

I wanted to create a network that connected women with organizations that truly valued their contributions. Inspired by the fearless women who came before me and the courageous women around me, I knew it was time to give our industry a voice that couldn’t be silenced.
