Our approach enables mass production of cultured seafood using a sustainable and recyclable fermentation-based process that results in clean, healthy, and sustainable protein-rich seafood products, bringing food security for future generations. Technology: Mermade Seafoods aims to be the first company to provide a circular method of production that will revolutionize the cell-based fermentation industry by using side-stream valorisation of growth media. The company's ground breaking technology is based on upcycling biological waste products from spent growth media and turn it into new, nutrient-rich food for the growing cells.
