Opportunities in Food Business Entrepreneurship: Don't Dismiss It.

[Bounce Back]

Great analysis, thank you for taking the time to write that. Would you say this happens both in big cities and small ones (and towns and countryside) or just in big cities?

Overall, I felt that Florida was very divided. You either have super fit people in Brickell or some other affluent neighborhoods/cities (like Coral Gables) or you have on average very unhealthy and obese people everywhere else.

On average, in California there isn't such a big gap - an average person looks way healthier than in Florida, both in cities and in suburbs and the countryside. But then again, California in general offers more opportunities to move and be active compared to Florida (which is way more urbanized and doesn't have such easily accessible nature).

I think cultural and historical things that make up Florida are unique in that there is like 4 or so let’s say “bigger” groups of folks living here that somehow vibe together for the most part but are very different. As they
merge and interact we see some pulled some way and some the other. Diet/food is impacted by that.

But overall I would say in about half of Florida the consciousness of real food is at least in the waking up stage. The other half I don’t think ever will care but will just be dragged along to some extent as FL is still a destination state bringing with it a fitter / affluent pressure on grocery stores. Though some of the pressure inward isn’t in a position really to choose (think coming from poorer countries) do it see-saws a bit.
