Our exploration continues with Co-Hosts Braden Kemp (Bioenterprise Canada) and Tracy Morningstar (Canadian Council for Indigenous Business) in conversation with Anthony Wingham, Co-Founder of Nuez Acres: a British Columbia-based Indigenous company formulating cosmetics products from pecan oil.
In this episode we touch on the history of the pecan tree, adapting pecan oil for beauty products, the “seed to skin” sustainability approach at Nuez Acres, and how their work is part of a broader “waterless revolution” happening now in the cosmetics industry.
The Executive Producer of the Frontier Entrepreneurship Podcast is Robert Washburn. Special thanks to Daniela Scoppa, Heather Cannings and John Hayden. This project is made possible with the support of FedDev Ontario and the Government of Canada.
