This week, we peel back the layers on what running a genuinely heartful business looks like in food and retail.We welcome Andrew Thornton, legendary for shaking up the industry and for always bringing his signature purposeful approach to everything from the shop floor to the boardroom. Andrew tells the story of his journey from his first job in a Dublin newsagent—serving the iconic Fergal Quinn—to launching a consulting company and eventually taking on supermarket ownership in the heart of North London.We talk about Andrew's midlife crisis (where instead of buying a Porsche, he bought two supermarkets!), the challenges and triumphs of making Thornton's Budgens a haven for people, planet, and innovation, and the world-first plastic free zones that changed the industry's approach to plastics. Andrew unpacks how shifting focus away from short-term profits actually made good business sense, and why psychological safety and authenticity matter—as much in retail as in life.You'll also hear why describing what people are doing well can make all the difference, what gratitude really looks like at work, and how slowing down at the start of a meeting can transform how people show up. Andrew even shares the story of the “giant tomato display”—a beautiful example of what happens when people are empowered to bring their full creative selves to work. We wrap up with a bold look at the big challenges facing the industry (hello, UPFs and microplastics), and why real innovation—driven by diverse voices and new tech—is our way forward. Oh, and we don't shy away from the fun either, because if work isn't enjoyable, what's the point?Timestamps 00:00 From Dublin News Agent to Foodie05:22 Musgrave's Long-Term, Stakeholder-Focused Strategy09:21 Testing Reusable Packaging Initiative10:46 Team's Dedication Over Personal Glory15:59 Inflow Matrix Exercise for Success18:37 Purpose Over Profit23:36 Reducing Costs with Natural Sweetener25:52 Tech and AI Revolutionizing Food Industry29:14 Unconventional Meeting Approaches33:10 Encouraging Innovation Through Open Dialogue35:30 Gratitude vs Negativity Hardwiring37:59 Start Meetings with Positives41:40 "Essential Human Needs Reminder43:58 "Share and Review Episode"Links and Resources:Website Link: https://ohforfoodssake.co.uk/FB Link: https://www.facebook.com/ohforfoodsakeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/oh-for-food-s-sake/You can follow us here on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oh_forfoodssake/For industry consulting from Lucy, connect with her on Instagram or LinkedIn.Find her on Instagram or LinkedIn for further support with industry coaching and facilitation from Amy.Oh For Food's Sake is sponsored by Microsearch Laboratories https://micro-search.co.uk/ and Point 74 https://www.point74.co.uk/See you next time!

This week on I'm joined by Angela Petro, the founder of Sweet Carrot and catering company Together & Co., and simply someone with a lot of stories, laughs, and insight to share! In this conversation, Angela shares a ton of wisdom, and also a little judgment, mostly for the fact that I've never worked a serving job and haven't watched enough Ted Lasso...(This is fair.) We get into how she built Sweet Carrot from a food truck, to one physical location to three…and why she eventually brought it back down to one. We talk about the reality of running businesses in the hospitality world, how the pandemic changed everything, and how her first catering gig was…of all things, a funeral! Angela also shares how living in Germany helped her discover her love for hospitality, the differences in how other countries view service work, and how Columbus has its own food culture and challenges. We dig into creative burnout, figuring out if you're more of a visionary or an implementor, and what it's like for our goals to change shape and navigating the change. Angela's now doing some amazing work in leadership development, and we also chat about what's next as she gears up for a Sweet Carrot relaunch. It's a good one, especially if you've ever worked in food service, tried to build something from scratch, or just love a good story!

This Women's HERStory Month, I'm celebrating women who are using food to build community, preserve culture, and spark meaningful change. One of those incredible women is Mahfam Moeeni-Alarcon , the founder and co-owner of Mingle + Graze, a cheese shop and eatery in downtown Chandler, Arizona, that is so much more than a place to eat—it's a space for connection, learning, and inclusion. Mahfam's journey from selling marinated olives at farmers' markets to pioneering grazing boards in the Phoenix area is a testament to her entrepreneurial spirit and passion for hospitality. Drawing from her Iranian heritage and her husband's Chilean roots, she infuses her menu with flavors and traditions that tell stories of culture, migration, and home. Her commitment to sustainability, food safety, and inclusivity is evident in every aspect of her work—from composting and recycling efforts to strict allergen protocols at Mingle + Graze. But Mahfam's impact doesn't stop at her businesses. As the Board Chair for Chandler Sister Cities, a member of the Chandler Arts Commission and a member of Les Dames d'Escoffier Phoenix Chapter, she fosters global connections and celebrates cultural diversity in her community. Mahfam is making HERstory by showing that food is more than sustenance—it's a bridge between cultures, a tool for empowerment, and a way to create a more inclusive world.
