Hello , we're PEOPLESETUP, a digital HR consultancy and a true partner to our clients in everything related to people management.

Our client is an exceptional Madrid-based scaleup, a pioneer in organic baby food in Spain. Founded in 2015 by two entrepreneurs determined to offer families natural, organic, additive-free food, it has transformed a category traditionally dominated by multinationals. Today, it is the best-selling Spanish brand in its category and a leader in organic baby food, with impressive online growth.

Its mission is simple: healthier food, natural ingredients and more sustainable packaging. This commitment made it the first company in Spain's organic baby food sector to achieve B Corp certification, recognising high standards of social and environmental responsibility.

Consumers (and their parents ) have embraced the brand. With sustained annual sales growth of over 50%, backing from specialist investment funds and its own production facility, the company is ready for its next chapter: scaling up and expanding internationally.
