#14 Gut Health & Entrepreneurship - Nikki Peters - Founder of The Cultured Collective

The Remote Edition Podcast

Welcome to Episode 14 of the WELL + WILD Podcast. This week we have Nikki Peters, Founder of The Cultured Collective on talking all things gut health and how she moved from the mining industry to build her incredible business. Founded in early 2016, by Nikki, to share her love of fermented foods with the world, The Cultured Collective is an innovative British brand specialising in craft Kimchi and Sauerkraut. All products are handmade in small batches in the Cotswolds with a focus on high quality natural ingredients and traditional manufacturing processes. Nikki started her career as a Geologist in the mining industry where she spent many years in Western Australia on exploration projects. She discusses her experience in the corporate world, how the lifestyle took a toll on her health and how she found a love of fermented foods and ultimately decided to create The Cultured Collective. We chat all about her journey including how she landed her first retailer - health food giant Whole Foods!! She also gives some really helpful advice for anyone thinking about starting a product based business. It’s a super inspiring story and I really enjoyed interviewing Nikki. The Cultured Collective was one of our amazing brand partners for our Take Charge event back in July so it was great to have Nikki on to chat more around how she built the business and explore the concept of gut health in more detail. Enjoy & thanks so much for listening!
