Austin Allan
Director of Marketing
Ark Foods


Austin is a seasoned entrepreneur and brand builder. After nearly a decade in financial services, he started a new career in the food industry in 2012 with the launch of his first-of-its-kind drinkable HPP soups brand called Tio Gazpacho. Eventually landing investments from General Mills and celebrity chef José Andrés, Austin and team exited the company to Novamex, owners of the Jaritos brand of soft drinks, in December 2018. Always hungry for new challenges, he officially joined Ark Foods in early 2019 to bring his experience in CPG to the young and rapidly growing produce brand.
