Kelly Gogela
Food Product Consultant: Innovation & Engineering Expertise
New to Contra
Kelly is ready for their next project!
Stop the R&D trial-and-error cycle. 🧪
Are you losing margin to inefficient formulas or launch delays? I bridge the gap between "great idea" and "market-ready." I’ve delivered results like a 9% LDL reduction in 30 days while maintaining 70%+ gross margins.
I specialize in Food, Beverage, and Supplements through three pillars:
Technical Engineering: Solving protein stability, starch gelatinization, and shelf life before production.
Strategic Sourcing: Cost engineering and vetting global suppliers to protect your margins and navigate MOQs.
Global Regulatory: Navigating FDA, Health Canada, EU, UK and Aussie standards to ensure clean-label compliance and seamless market entry.
Let’s build a product that delivers on its functional promises.

Food Innovation BTS. Hello Contra world! I am new here and may or may not be one of Contra's first Food Scientists 👩🔬 I was fortunate to begin with project leading nutraceutical food product development for Step One Foods and the Mayo Clinic ten years ago and now am just wrapping up formulation development with Zest Island who are looking to start production in the new year. Very happy to be part of this community and looking forward to all the successes on the platform!!🙌
