62: Connecting Local Producers to Consumers with truLOCAL’s Marc Lafleur - a podcast by The Richard Dri Podcast

Today, I am joined by Marc Lafleur, CEO and Co-Founder at truLOCAL, a consumer platform that helps people access locally-sourced meat products that are 100% grass fed and pasture raised. By connecting local meat producers with meat eating consumers through an ecommerce system, truLOCAL helps farmers increase revenues while ensuring consumers receive sustainable meats delivered right to their door. Started in 2016, truLOCAL has grown quickly, currently employing a workforce of 55 men and women that has proven key to its enormous success.

During our conversation, Marc discusses his company and how it works, its financing, including an appearance on the Dragon’s Den television program, his company’s marketing strategy, and its recent acquisition by EMERGE. He also shares his lowest point with truLOCAL and how it was overcome, his definition of financial independence, and then Marc concludes by offering his long term vision for the future.
