February is already over and with that comes my end-of-the-month celebratory post! 🎉 We try to cultivate a habit of celebrating wins Bolder Foods. It's all too easy to get lost in the daily grind and forget to lift our heads to reflect on our achievements. 🫣 Apart from this monthly highlight, every Friday we do an internal "weekly update" where we shine a light on that week's key achievements, even on those tough days or weeks when it feels like we're not doing great. So, what's February's highlight? Drumroll, please! 🥁 We received our first bits of positive feedback from a corporate trial! 🌟 Tried in both hot and cold applications, the R&D team discovered that MycoVeg significantly "enhances the fattiness and creaminess in plant-based cheeses." 🧀 This feedback reinforces our commitment to creating top-notch non-dairy cheese alternatives that excite taste buds and meet the demands of discerning consumers 🤤 With MycoVeg™ making progress, we envision a future where more cows, like the one in the photo, can finally retire peacefully 😎🐮 #foodtech #altcheese #startup #highlight

This 4th of July, we are celebrating one of America’s evolving culinary icons: the burger! 🇺🇸🎆🍔 The origins of the burger are shrouded in mystery, but most food historians agree that it was invented in the United States in the late 1800s or early 1900s. By the 1920s, burgers were being sold at roadside stands and diners across the country, and by the 1950s they had become a symbol of American culture and fast food. In recent years, alternative protein burgers have made their way to backyard barbecues and gourmet kitchens alike, proving that while consumers still want to enjoy this iconic sandwich, they're looking for versions that meet other values. Such alternatives are not only better for the environment but also cater to a growing demand for healthier and ethical food choices. According to the The Good Food Institute, swapping out a beef patty for an Impossible Foods or Beyond Meat burger reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 89% and 90%, respectively. (1) As we fire up the grills this Independence Day, join us in celebrating the culinary advancements that allow for greater consumer choice and impact.

Culinary Innovation: An Interview with HomeCooks CEO Joshua M. It's no longer enough to provide great food to keep customers coming back for more; customers want great food when, what, and how they want. This means new service models and tech must cater to this growing demand. As new models centered on convenience and health are experimented with, firms must streamline the process for ordering and add value for customers. This is where the connection between independent chefs, small food businesses, and discerning customers comes in. HomeCooks is an innovative platform redefining how we think about and engage with the food industry in the United Kingdom. #foodtech #newmodel #chefs #easeofuse https://lnkd.in/eERh_4ak

“I was inspired by my three-year-old daughter. I wanted to create a fast casual restaurant for her generation to eat more ethically.” 🌱 Team abillion recently sat down with Alexander Tan, founder of the world's first exclusively #plantbased burger joint, VEGANBURG. In the heart of Singapore, VEGANBURG emerged as a pioneer, reshaping #fastfood norms way before plant-based became a global trend. It was established in 2010 by Alexander Tan who believes that "no work is more meaningful than this; to create a revolution for the fast-food industry". Driven by his daughter's influence and his own health transformation, Alex redefined traditional fast food. With innovative fusion offerings like the “Rasa Sayang” and “Chili Krab,” these burgers are bursting with flavours and we couldn’t get enough! As a recognized Top 100 Fast Casual entity in the U.S., VEGANBURG has shown that plant-based food can stand toe-to-toe with industry giants. For Alex, the mission transcends competition – He views industry peers not as rivals, but as partners to ignite consumer change in the fast-food industry. As for sceptics out there who think a #vegan burger will not taste as good as its meat counterparts, Mr Tan challenges you to take the first bite. You won’t be disappointed! 🍔 #veganbusiness #vegan #burgers #entrepreneur #plantbased #sustainableliving #fastfoodrevolution

 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞 In today's big world of selling things, people like stories that feel real. Chipotle, one of the fastest-growing restaurant chains over the last decade, understands this well. They're not just about serving up delicious burritos, they're committed to something bigger: fresh food that's sourced responsibly. Chipotle's approach is simple: they support family farms and source sustainable ingredients from local growers who treat animals and the environment with care. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦. Instead of bombarding customers with ads, they show off the quality of their food and its origins. Chipotle shares stuff on social media like starting with behind-the-kitchen scenes, revealing how they craft tasty food and how they provide fresh food to its customers. And Guess What Ideas Works The lesson here is clear: When you tell your brand's story honestly and in a way that people like, it makes them trust you more. So, whether you're a small startup or a big corporation, remember: your story matters the most.

In the heart of a small town, there was a family-run bakery called "Sweet Beginnings." 🍰 The bakery had been passed down through generations, each member adding their own touch to the recipes and ambiance. However, as the years passed, competition from larger chain bakeries grew fierce, and Sweet Beginnings found itself struggling to keep up. Instead of succumbing to the pressure, the family decided to innovate. They noticed a growing trend in health-conscious eating and a demand for gluten-free and vegan options. 🥗 With determination and creativity, they revamped their menu to cater to these dietary preferences while maintaining the quality and taste they were known for. Additionally, they leveraged social media to showcase their new offerings and engage with customers directly, building a loyal following. Through community events and partnerships with local organizations, Sweet Beginnings became more than just a bakery; it became a hub for health-conscious foodies and a symbol of resilience in the face of adversity. 🌟 The lesson from Sweet Beginnings is clear: Adaptation and innovation are crucial for small businesses to survive and thrive in a competitive market. By staying attuned to changing trends and customer preferences, and by embracing new technologies and marketing strategies, any small business can carve out its niche and create its own success story. 🚀 #SweetBeginnings #SmallBusinessSuccess #InnovationIsKey #AdaptAndThrive #HealthConsciousEating #LocalBakeryLove #ResilientEntrepreneurs #CommunityEngagement #DeliciouslyCreative

We recently hosted a discussion with Good Buzz Beverage Co., a premium-quality kombucha maker located in the Bay of Plenty region of New Zealand.
