Our Team
Mandy, LAKITOS’ founder, has been fascinated with superfoods. As a teenager, Mandy remembers discovering spirulina and being totally blown away that there was this
blue green algae scraped off the top of a lake,
that you could EAT and it cleaned your blood
(among a million other benefits). Not long after this
discovery, she became obsessed with superfoods.
Professionally, Mandy began working with an ingredient called moringa, and traveled all over the world working with farmers to turn this amazing plant into something to be shared with the world. Building supply chains, sourcing from small farmers to large co-ops, always keeping in mind the social impact this type of work could impart. From there, the list of interesting and functional ingredients that could be used in innovative and delicious snacks only grew.
