Brami
Sponsored by Hummingbirds
I sat down with Aaron Gatti, a first-generation Italian American and the founder of Brami, a brand that’s reinventing Italian slow-food traditions for the modern consumer. Aaron’s passion for heritage, health, and innovation shows up in every part of Brami—from their Lupini Bean Snacks to their Italian Protein Pasta, both made in Italy and packed with plant-based protein.
In this episode, we talk about what it really takes to bring something new (and meaningful) to shelf, how Brami balances authenticity with convenience, and the power of staying true to your roots while building a brand that resonates with today’s shoppers.
If you're creating a better-for-you product or trying to bring a cultural twist to the CPG space, you’ll want to hear this one.
