A trio of founders

At GourmetPro, we're known as super-connectors, bridging top-tier professionals with leading F&B executives. Our mission began with filling capability gaps and capturing new growth opportunities for both our clients and experts.

As a trio of founders, our blend of complementary skills forms the foundation: Ugo, the innovative force and architect propelling GourmetPro forward; Polina, a wizard in operations, continually elevating client satisfaction; and Vincent, a F&B executive and consultant, lending his industry expertise.

Everyday, we endeavour to amplify synergies across our collective of over 150+ top-tier experts, fostering unparalleled growth opportunities for our clients worldwide."

Our Team

Driven by WOW moments...

The Common Mismatch

We discovered that even the slickest organizations hit roadblocks because their in-house talents sometimes don't match their expansion dreams, especially when it comes to new markets and categories. Relying solely on internal capabilities is not sufficient to drive growth; companies need to seek external expertise.

Daunting Execution

In our countless talks with top executives worldwide, a powerful insight hit us: implementing strategies without any on-ground support is a daunting task. Too often, they are left alone grappling with thick PPT reports prepared by consulting firms, without any practical assistance in execution.

Client-Driven geographies

Started from Japan, now we're here! Our journey unfolded as clients worldwide clamored for our services—APAC, Europe, the USA, you name it! It's how we grew our collective, fueled by what our clients wanted.

Why We're Here

Our purpose is powerful yet straightforward: we aim to reshape the future of the food industry, placing people at its heart.

We're here to empower leaders craving transformation, driven to breathe vitality into new innovative initiatives, hungry to evolve their industry into a more sustainable one.

But let's face it - inaction lurks in the shadows.
Most organization are hold back by capability gaps within their existing teams and a shortage of top-tier talents. In the face of the urgent need to revolutionize the food landscape, inaction isn't just a hurdle; it's an impediment that the food industry can ill afford.

We confront inaction head-on, building a new paradigm where top-tier expertise is readily accessible to turn inertia into change. Our purpose is to connect doers craving to build the future of the food industry.
