About Us

Join us on our journey to innovate the food system!

We are Ana, Cecilie, and Martina and our story began in 2021, when we met at a university. Driven by a shared passion for positive change, we set out to redefine the path to great food — now and in the future.


We challenge how the food industry develops and portrays non-animal proteins, and make plant-rich meals easy and delicious — without the need to imitate meat. While pioneering food innovation, we remain committed to great flavor, high quality, and a tiny climate impact.
