Who’s in the kitchen? More importantly who’s leading our commercial kitchen to ensure we meet the needs of our food-maker community? Magnolia Fund HTX is excited to welcome Victoria E. and Robert Lopez to our kitchen leadership team and Fund Advisory Board. Victoria Elizondo is chef and owner of Cochinita & Co. From food-truck to pop-up to catering, and now running a certified food manufacturing business, Victoria has seen it all. She’s not only an award winning chef (James Beard Award nominated) but also a published author of “Taco-tastic” cookbook. Robert Lopez, formerly of Kickin' Kombucha and now full time at Cochinita & Co started his wildly popular fermented tea company that eventually found its way on store shelves at Whole Foods, Central Market/HEB and Randalls to name a few. His experience is now utilized to run the packaged goods line helping Cochinita & Co create “grocery ready” goods for distribution.

Dream big, start small, act now. We can’t think of a better example of this than Jesse Martinez  His advice, friendship and bias toward action are why we're so excited to welcome to the Magnolia Fund HTX Fund Advisory Board. #CommunityBuilder #ecosystem
