Our Impact
At Potlikker Capital, we believe in making a lasting difference by providing the financial tools and strategic support needed to empower producers and communities across the entire food system. Our work is rooted in creating positive, measurable impact—from helping farmers implement regenerative practices to supporting sustainable businesses that strengthen local food systems.
Through our investments and partnerships, Potlikker Capital has helped to deploy capital to producers, increasing their access to the resources necessary to implement regenerative practices and build long-term sustainability. We’ve seen firsthand how our funding models empower farmers, ranchers, fishers, food processors, cooperatives, and retailers to not only grow but also build resiliency in their local communities.
Driving Progress
By driving impact at every level of the food system—from individual smallholder farms to regionally networked cooperatives—we are working to create a more sustainable food economy for future generations. Our focus is on restoring harmony within the system, fostering long-term stability, and ensuring that all stakeholders have the opportunity to thrive. Through our work, we aim to create a more cohesive and efficient food economy, where sustainable practices and fair access to resources are prioritized, benefiting everyone involved.
Restoring Balance
Empowering Change in Action
One of the standout examples of Potlikker Capital’s impact is our partnership with Two Rivers Fisheries in Wickliffe, KY, led by Angie Yu. Potlikker Capital has supported Two Rivers through an investment that enabled the fishery to expand its operations, enhance sustainability efforts, and increase production capacity.
With our financial backing, Angie and her team at Two Rivers have implemented more sustainable fishing practices, such as reducing waste, improving water quality management, and promoting aquaculture methods that protect marine ecosystems. This investment has helped Two Rivers become more resilient to environmental changes, allowing them to scale operations and meet growing demand while remaining environmentally responsible.
Potlikker Capital’s support didn’t stop with financial capital. We also provided technical assistance, helping Two Rivers develop a comprehensive growth strategy that aligns with regenerative practices. By connecting Angie with industry experts and providing insights into market opportunities, we’ve helped the fishery expand its reach and build stronger relationships with local retailers and distributors who value sustainably sourced seafood.
Angie’s story is a powerful example of how Potlikker Capital works not only to provide financial capital but also to empower businesses like Two Rivers to adopt practices that are environmentally sustainable and economically profitable. This partnership highlights how Potlikker Capital’s holistic approach—combining access to capital, strategic support, and capacity building—can foster long-term, positive change in local food systems.
