Alexander Corsini is the Founder and CEO of Alex's Awesome Sourdough. After discovering sourdough's unique health benefits following an autoimmune diagnosis in 2016, he set out to build a brand celebrating all things sourdough fermentation. In 2017, he launched the natural foods brand with a focus on the nourishing qualities of sourdough, bringing thoughtfully sourced organic food back to the family table.

Sourdough is known to be more digestible and nutritious compared to regular white bread—but, why? Sourdough is made by fermenting dough using a culture that gives it a sour taste, better quality, and gut-friendly bacteria.
When Alexander Corsini was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, he turned to sourdough—and was impressed by the results. He started baking his own bread at home and later decided to start a CPG business around sourdough to promote its consumption and to help provide better nutrition to other people.
In this week's episode of NexxtLevel Podcast, Alexander Corsini, the Founder and CEO of Alex's Awesome Sourdough, sits down with G. Steven Cleere to talk about the benefits behind sourdough and how he eventually founded Alex's Awesome Sourdough. He talks about the challenges he faced growing his business, the types of products he sells, and why he chose to build a CPG business instead of starting a pizza parlour.
