Creating plant based milk for kids - with Amy Langfield, Grow with Iris
Manage episode 518099357 series 2798978
In this episode, Vicki chats with Amy Langfield, co-founder of Grow with Iris — a fortified, plant-based drink for children aged 12 months to 4 years. What started as one mum’s search for a safe, nutritious alternative for her allergic daughter has grown into a business helping families all over the UK.
Amy opens up about:
🌱 Turning a personal challenge into a purposeful business — how her daughter’s severe allergies inspired the creation of Grow with Iris.
🌱 Navigating regulations and formulation — the behind-the-scenes work of developing a nutritious, safe, and great-tasting children’s drink.
🌱 Funding innovation — how grants from Innovate UK supported research, development, and sustainability goals (and how you could benefit too!).
🌱 Building a sustainable brand — from eco-conscious packaging to lifecycle analysis
🌱 Practical advice for founders
Amy’s story is the perfect reminder that you don’t have to have all the answers to build something amazing — just a strong “why,” a willingness to learn, and a community around you.
