About
Company description
FoodCalc® is the only web-based provider of real-time nutritional analysis and label-compliance solutions for food manufacturers, restaurants, dietitians and chefs. We've designed the industry's only one-stop resource for analyzing and creating accurate, FDA-compliant nutrition fact panels.
Team
Lucy Needham, owner of FoodCalc, LLC created FoodCalc out of her concern for a healthier America through readily accessible nutrition information. Lucy's recognition of the advantages and opportunities that an online nutrition solution would provide has allowed her to bring together the two skills of nutrition expertise and IT development. Certified to advise on FDA product labeling regulations, Lucy brings a wealth of industry knowledge, market research and a total understanding of designing and developing online nutritional applications.
Business model
FoodCalc offers two novel nutrition analysis applications: LabelCalc®, which creates up-to-date FDA-compliant nutrition facts panels for food manufacturers; and MenuCalc®, which calculates the nutrition analysis of recipes for restaurants and culinary professionals such as chefs, dietitians and recipe authors.
Competitive advantage
FoodCalc's mission is simple - to be the gold standard for web-based nutrition analysis solutions. As food people ourselves, we understand the specific needs and tight budgets of busy food professionals, and our food science expertise enables us to deliver the best information available. Therefore, we've used cutting-edge technology to design user-friendly, affordable tools that take the headache out of compliance and labeling. Our promise to you is instant, accurate, easily accessible nutrition results at a fraction of the high cost of laboratories, consultants and software.
