Industry Problem

Global Protein Challenge because the land is already in use and is not enough to meet the increasing demand for primary proteins (crops) production.

R&D Focus

Insect-based Protein

Innovative Solution

Nambu Group takes organic waste and uses it to create a substrate and once the larvae have reached maturity, they sieve them out of the substrate, enabling pet owners to be provided with a novel, insect-based pet feed

Solution Effectiveness

Nambu, by utilizing Black Soldier Fly farming methods, the recycling process produces 50% less Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (CO2e) than traditional composting and landfill methods hence environmentally sustainable
