Food Companies
Reduce your company’s environmental footprint and create new revenue
Our insect farms enable food companies such as retailers and restaurant chains to reduce and valorise food waste, turning waste streams into a local and low-carbon protein-rich ingredient for use in poultry and pig diets.
Reduce Food Waste
Black soldier fly larvae eat almost any organic waste and the bioconversion process can reduce volumes of food waste (e.g. fruit and vegetable residue, brewers grain or ground coffee) by up to 75%.
Create New Revenue
Our insect farms offer valuable new revenue streams for food businesses such as insect protein for poultry and pigs, and other valuable co-products including oils, chitin and fertiliser.
Secure Supply Chains
Our insect farms can be set up near existing agricultural farms or facilities, supplying a reliable, local and low-carbon protein source to feed farmed animals and reducing the need for imported feed.
Meet Net Zero Targets
BSF farming offers a low carbon alternative to traditional feed sources like soy or fishmeal, which are often linked to deforestation, overfishing, and high carbon footprints.
