Working his way from 14-year old dishwasher to an award-winning chef and entrepreneur in just ten years, Peter Keith has never been one to back down from a challenge. After winning international cooking competitions, working in some of Canada’s top restaurants, and earning degrees in culinary arts and business, Peter was ready for more. He followed his relentless spirit and opened “Meuwly’s” - a celebrated charcuterie brand and boutique retailer in Edmonton.

He's a passionate speaker on topics of team leadership, mental health, and business innovation, and engages in thought leadership around the future of the food industry in an ever-changing world. He’s learned how to empathize and connect with creatives, c-suite, and customers alike - and he mentors other professionals to do the same in their roles. He is also a founding member of “In the Weeds,” a nonprofit focused on mental health and wellness for restaurant workers.

Peter has quickly become a sought-after voice in Western Canada’s food and small business ecosystem and was awarded the Culinary Federation’s “Canadian Chef of the Year” and Canadian Foodservice & Hospitality’s “Top 30 Under 30” in 2020.
