grainful_logoGrainful, a growing Ithaca-based company and TCAD loan fund recipient, recently won a spot in the  Chobani Food Incubator program, which looks for “innovative early stage food and beverage startups.”
Grainful was one of seven companies selected for the program this year out of more than 550 applicants. Grainful will receive a $25,000 grant from Chobani, along with other resources to help grow their business.
