Episode 43: Daniel Nicholson of NadaMoo!
The Checkout checks in with Daniel Nicholson, CEO of NadaMoo!, a leading plant-based ice cream based in Austin, Texas. The Checkout’s Host Errol Schweizer first put NadaMoo! on grocery shelves way back in 2005 while working as a grocery buyer in Austin.
Daniel Nicholson graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2007 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Daniel discovered NadaMoo! in 2008 after an introduction to the founder. Since immediately falling in love with the product and brand, NadaMoo! has become his sole focus for the past 13+ years. He started as the Controller, and after 3 years, the founder of the company was ready to step out to pursue other opportunities. In that moment, Daniel decided to step into the role of President and CEO, and he never looked back. Since 2011, the company has grown its revenue over 50x, from being distributed in just a few hundred stores to over 10,000 stores nationwide, and it is beginning to be distributed more widely in Canada. NadaMoo! has been a driving force for Daniel to help build awareness around health, wellness, and sustainability.
