Sometimes you start an episode and you have a good feeling right away. When I started talking to Shobhita Soor I had this feeling. She gave off a great positive vibe during our conversation which I feel stemmed from her conviction regarding her mission: making protein insufficiency and inaccessibility in West Africa a thing of the past. She does so via her company Legendary Foods - one of the first large scale commercial insect farming companies in West Africa. Shobhita moved to Ghana to spin off a new venture from the first company she founded in the United States. Her first company turned out to be a success and she figured she should take her learnings to have an impact in Africa. She lets me in on her entrepreneurial journey in Ghana, what hurdles she had to take and where the weaknesses in her larvae farming business are.
