Where You Are

We’ve Been Where You Are

The business is growing, but the operations haven’t adapted
to keep up. Focusing on that specific challenge for fresh food
companies is our singular focus.

From building a $1.5 billion Case Ready meat supply chain to
increasing strawberry freshness, our team has tackled fresh
food challenges head-on for some of the largest suppliers and
grocers in the US.

Most leaders are so buried in the day-to-day they don’t have
the time, team, or toolkit to redesign how the business runs.
That’s where we come in.

ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Deep Industry Understanding

Judson spent 30 years in fresh food ops before starting Building Block Solutions. He’s worked everywhere - from plant floors to boardrooms - helping some of the biggest names in protein and grocery cut costs, roll out tech, and grow across multiple channels.

By 30, he had helped develop RFID cattle tracking, optimized early Case Ready operations, and built citrus-to-box traceability. Since then? Cold chain programs, seafood inspections, one of the most efficient Case Ready facilities in the U.S., and running one of the biggest retail meat supply chains through Covid.

You won’t find someone with broader experience across the fresh food supply chain. He started Building Block Solutions to help companies actually get things done — not just sit through another strategy presentation.
