This Company Offers One-Stop Shopping For Artisanal Food Artizone lets the farmers market come to you.

In 2009, three software engineers, a CFO and an HR exec came up with a savory idea: They would create a platform that lets shoppers make purchases from multiple artisan food producers and have everything delivered in a single order, along with certain big-brand staples.

"To be successful, we knew we had to work with artisans in each city and build an online farmers market filled with local products," explains Lior Lavy, co-founder and COO of Dallas-based Artizone.

Today the company works with hundreds of purveyors who sell everything from pancake mix to sea salt in three markets. We talked to Lavy about how he's helping small food businesses expand their reach.
