DALLAS, Texas – MarketScale, a leading B2B media company, is launching the first season of “Run the Pass with Chef Andre” featuring executive chef Andre Natera this summer.

“Run the Pass with Chef Andre” features Natera in his element, hosting a series of food and beverage industry superstars each month to discuss the business side of the industry as they prepare a new dish.

A graduate of Le Cordon Bleu, a Mentor BKB member and a member of the World Master Chef Society, Natera labels his unique style as fresh, simple and approachable, and driven by Mother Nature.

The end result speaks for itself, as Natera was recognized as one of the 10 best chefs in Dallas in both 2011 and 2012. Natera currently serves as the executive chef of the Fairmont Austin Hotel, the largest luxury hotel in Texas.

Topics for the first season of “Run the Pass with Chef Andre” include adopting and leveraging new technologies, supply chain management, agility in changing to a delivery-oriented kitchen, attracting and retaining top talent, general best practices and more.

On the premier episode, Natera goes on a “restaurant walk” to visit with the most well-known names in the restaurant industry in Austin including L’Oca d’Oro and Foreign & Domestic to discuss how they have shifted their business models to accommodate for curbside and delivery in recent months.

The guest list for the first season is a who’s-who of industry leaders, including Made In Cookware Co-Founder and President Jake Kalick, Food Related Founder and CEO Luciano Ciociari, Austin Food and Wine Alliance Executive Director Mariam Parker, and Giant Noise Executive Vice President Courtney Knittel.

And that’s just the beginning.

Natera’s new venture is aimed at providing an interesting and engaging look at the state of the food, beverage and restaurant industry, giving viewers unique insights from those who know it best.

Natera is uniquely positioned to bring these experts together over one stove, where he can pick their brains, share knowledge and the experiences he’s gathered over the course of his illustrious career and, lastly, create a stunning meal.

Food is a tremendous unifier, and Natera is committed to using that power to bring a valuable insider look to audiences across the world.

You can keep up with each exciting episode of “Run the Pass with Chef Andre” right here.

Two of six shortlisted Slovenian private-label food makers changed owners in 2026

Two of six shortlisted Slovenian private-label food makers changed owners in 2026

A buyer guide shortlists six Slovenian private-label food makers, from Incom Leone ice cream to plant-based specialist Organa, without claiming they control the country's output. In 2026 AGRANA bought Fruit Emba and Atlantic Grupa bought Osem, so supplier files need updating.

  • 01AGRANA completed its Fruit Emba deal on April 23, 2026 and Atlantic Grupa completed its Osem deal on August 31, 2026, so supplier records for those two plants may need new ownership details.
  • 02Register income figures for these firms are company-wide. Incom's €189.49m includes its own Leone brand, so it says nothing about how much private-label capacity is actually free.

GLP-1 shoppers push frozen meal tray choices to the start of development

GLP-1 shoppers push frozen meal tray choices to the start of development

GLP-1 users want smaller, protein-dense frozen meals, and that demand is pushing frozen processors and tray suppliers to make packaging decisions earlier. The tray is becoming part of the recipe. Speed to market increasingly depends on whether a tray runs on existing sealing lines and holds up from freezer to microwave.

  • 01In a portion-controlled frozen entrée, tray choice belongs in the same development meeting as the recipe, because a tray that needs retooling or warps on reheat delays the SKU.

Rice startup NIVERA says its edible coating nearly triples produce shelf life

Rice startup NIVERA says its edible coating nearly triples produce shelf life

NIVERA, a startup that grew out of doctoral research at Rice University, has developed a thin, edible coating that nearly triples produce shelf life in its own testing. It is starting with avocados and berries. Daniel Preston's mechanical engineering lab at Rice contributed expertise in spray-coating applications and in translating laboratory discoveries into practical technologies.

  • 01NIVERA's edible coating nearly tripled shelf life for certain fruits and vegetables in the company's own testing, and avocados and berries are first in line.
  • 02Earlier Rice research produced an egg-based coating that doubled the shelf life of avocados and bananas. NIVERA, a startup built on Rice doctoral work, says its coating of proteins and fibers can nearly triple the shelf life of certain produce, based on the company's own testing.
  • 03The useful question for a shipper or retailer is how many extra days the coating adds under that buyer’s own temperatures, packaging and transit times, because Rice News did not describe the startup test conditions.
