About our company

Good Eggs is led by Rob Spiro & Alon Salant, working out of the Mission district of San Francisco. We're a technology company that's driven by a mission to change the world.

Our team has been involved in the development of major technology products over the past few years at Google, Yahoo, Carbon Five and Aardvark. We're backed by Harrison Metal Capital, Baseline Ventures, and some of the best angel investors in the technology industry.

What we're up to

We're creating a product and company to serve and grow local food systems.

We're starting off by identifying key problems and opportunities for people throughout local food, whether they grow, prepare, serve, or just eat great locally-produced food. We're using a few different research and prototyping techniques to learn as much as possible, including various collaborations with folks throughout the local food ecosystem.

What are local food systems?

• Local food systems are networks of farms, commercial kitchens, grocers, trucks and warehouses that primarily or exclusively serve a single metro area or a single region in a state, often employing tens of thousands of people.
• Local food systems are generally made up of small, locally-owned companies, with owners who care about the quality of the foods they're producing, the people they're employing and the communities they're sustaining.
• Local food systems produce foods that don't use chemical byproducts of corn & soybeans, like high fructose corn syrup, maltodextrin, and other junk that very clearly makes people unhealthy.
• Local food systems produce meat that hasn't been pumped full of growth hormones and fed a diet of corn and raised in a colossal sea of waste, which also very clearly makes people unhealthy.
• Local food systems are built on polyculture agriculture (farmers raising multiple crops, instead of one commodity-crop) which is much better for the soil and natural ecosystems.
• Local food systems spawn Farmers Markets and community gardens in urban neighborhoods which lead to urban renewal and healthier inner cities.
• Local food systems produce food that’s fresher and tastes better when it gets to your plate.
