Zack Fuss – Breaking Down the Food Ecosystem – [Invest Like the Best, EP.208]

<p>My guest today is Zach Fuss, an investor at Continental Grain, a 200-year-old family owned business that is focused on investing and operating businesses throughout the food and agriculture ecosystem with assets across the US, Latin America, and Asia. Prior to his work at Continental, Zack was an analyst at Tiger and Citadel. This is a must listen for those interested in any aspect of the food ecosystem but also understanding value chains more generally. In our conversation we cover where profits tend to sit in a specific value chain, how legacy food businesses are creating their 2nd acts as digital businesses and explore what makes Domino's Pizza so interesting and special. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Zach Fuss. </p> <p> </p> <p>For the full show notes, transcript, and links to mentioned content check out <a href= "https://www.joincolossus.com/episodes/93129089/fuss-breaking-down-the-food-ecosystem" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.joincolossus.com/episodes/93129089/fuss-breaking-down-the-food-ecosystem</a></p> <p><strong>This episode of Invest Like the Best is sponsored by </strong><a href= "https://canalyst.com/?utm_source=Invest_Like_The_Best&utm_medium=Sponsored_Content&utm_campaign=Show_Notes&utm_term=Jan_2021&utm_content=Jan_12" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><strong>Canalyst</strong></a><strong>. Canalyst is the leading destination for public company data and analysis.  If you’re a professional equity investor and haven’t talked to Canalyst recently, you should give them a shout.
