Summary:

This case study details an effort undertaken to address the wicked and complex problem of food insecurity by Food21's Larimer Fresh project, a social enterprise with the goal of providing economic and community revitalization through the establishment of a food hall and community center in Pittsburgh, PA. The Larimer Fresh project aims to provide self-sustaining access to fresh and affordable food for community members. The case study provides context and details for the proposal Food21's CEO, Joe Bute, must make to various stakeholders involved in the project to secure access to land, funding, and community support-all of which are essential to the success of the social enterprise. In developing his proposal, Bute must weigh the input of investors, community members, city agencies, and demonstrate a deep and genuine understanding of food insecurity, its causes, and the impacts of his social enterprise on residents of the Larimer community.
