Richard Lackey spent decades in finance and hedge fund management, mastering the art of finding inefficiencies. But when he turned his attention to food systems, he discovered what may be the world’s most inefficient market. That discovery became the foundation of the World Food Bank—an innovative hybrid model designed to fight hunger, empower farmers, and transform agriculture into an investable, sustainable solution.

In this episode of Purpose Driven Capital, host Matt Johns speaks with Richard about:

• Why regenerative agriculture is the key to resilient food systems
• How smallholder farmers in Africa are lifting communities out of poverty
• The unique hybrid model of a benevolent for-profit organization
• Why food storage can be treated as an asset class
• What it really takes to impact global hunger at scale

This is a powerful conversation about how ethical investing, agriculture, and community can work together to solve one of humanity’s greatest challenges.

If you’ve ever asked yourself how finance can serve a higher purpose, this episode will challenge the way you see both food and wealth.
