Great ideas are often born out of a sense of personal frustration. For Alan Bekerman, founder of iQ Food Co., his personal frustration reached a boiling point when the former office dweller would leave his downtown desk every day in search of a healthy place to eat lunch and would often find nothing at the local food courts.
Alan’s lunch problem inspired a business journey that has given rise to one of the financial district’s most popular lunch spots. Since opening in 2011, Alan’s iQ Food Co. has become a top destination for downtown lunchers seeking taste-heavy and health-conscious meals, served quickly and for a great price.
