#108 – Starbucks, McDonald's, KFC: Xavier Naville - How A Frenchman Found Gold Growing Vegetables In China

Wow, what an exciting story. We have to be honest: After talking
to Xavier, we were really blown away. And rightly so: What the
hell is a Frenchman thinking coming to China, the country with
arguably the best cuisine in the world, with a plan to
revolutionise the way they eat and what they eat? Crazy, but from
the craziest ideas come the best stories and the most important
lessons. 


We definitely learnt a lot from Xavier. He founded Creative Food,
a major supplier for big restaurant chains in China like
McDonalds, KFC and Starbucks. He grew the company into an
organisation with 9 factories supplying 6,500 restaurants a day
and a turnover of 150 million dollars. 


He also wrote a book about it: The Lettuce Diaries, a business
memoir about his years as CEO of a food company in China.


So far so good, but we'll let Xavier tell the rest himself. Let
the conversation melt in your mouth, especially the next time you
bite into a Big Mac. Let's go!

Have a look at Xavier Naville too!
