15 Women-Owned Food Brands to Shop Beyond March

As far as beef jerky brands go, ones that are women-owned and -operated are far from common. Enter Ashley Kohn. As a health-conscious Celiac who grew up with food allergies, Kohn founded Prevail Jerky when she couldn't find any high-protein snacks free from the top eight allergens. With the help of her foodie husband, Glen, Kohn created Prevail's Original Beef Jerky along with a tasty variety of other flavors.

Prevail's Original Beef Jerky ($7) is 100-percent grass-fed, cherry-wood-smoked beef. Not only is it soy and gluten-free, it's also paleo and keto-certified.
