Corey Lea tackles US meat shortage by taking network of ranchers to digital platform

Cattle rancher and cowboy, Corey Lea made a commitment to continue to bring economic justice and US homegrown food to our plates. 

When Lea saw a way to drive customers to Black food sources, he started with a company driving customers to Black farmers selling fruits and vegetables. Soon after, the US meat shortage hit, and another idea was born from the food insecurity—he’s been building a national network of farmers to sell meat with new company, SFE Land and Cattle.

Now, his goal is to provide 100,000 pounds of meat processed and delivered after the first month of his launch, all without the middle person.
