A participation that supports Cook it’s vision towards entrepreneurship and local sourcing
Montreal, June 7, 2023 – Eight years after appearing on Dans l’œil du dragon as an entrepreneur, Judith Fetzer, president and co-founder of Cook it, is back, this time as a guest dragon and investor. Nicolas Duvernois (Romeo’s gin) will hand over his chair to the visionary behind Cook it on June 14, for the final episode of the season.
“Cook it has been a proud supporter of local businesses since the beginning, and I look forward to building on that foundation,” says Fetzer. “It’s an honour for me to be back on the show that helped me propel my business, and meet new and inspiring entrepreneurs.”
Judith Fetzer’s return to the show is a testament to her extraordinary journey since a first appearance in 2014, when she received offers from five dragons for her business and introduced Cook it to over a million viewers. Cook it is on a mission to be the best way to eat, and has always been committed to local entrepreneurship and promoting local businesses beyond Quebec’s borders. It’s not only the first ready-to-eat company in the country, it’s also the first company to develop an eco-friendly version of the traditional meal kit, and to offer recipes recognized by Aliments du Québec. Some of the products featured in Dans l’œil du dragon will even be available in Cook it’s 100% local Pantry for a limited time.
Tune in Wednesday, June 14 on Radio-Canada!
