Nanka

NANKA is a Malaysian food technology company specializing in the production of plant-based meat alternatives derived from jackfruit. Founded as a spin-off from the entity Ira Noah, the company utilizes patent-pending, high-iteration technology originally developed at the International Islamic University Malaysia to transform jackfruit into versatile meat substitutes. Their product lineup includes meat-like patties, cubes, nuggets, hotdogs, and mince, which are designed to serve as minimally processed and additive-free options. The company operates production facilities in Subang Jaya, Malaysia, and maintains a representative office in Singapore, focusing on sustainable food production that addresses human health, animal welfare, and environmental impact.

By creating delicious, nutritious, and accessible plant-based foods, NANKA targets the needs of families and children to encourage healthy dietary habits. Their products serve as a customizable, plant-based alternative for consumers seeking to reduce reliance on highly processed fast foods. The company's technology has earned multiple accolades, including the ITEX Gold Medal and recognition as a critical innovation by the Malaysia Ministry of Science and Technology. NANKA is backed by international investors and has actively expanded its footprint through partnerships with major food and beverage chains in Malaysia, aiming to make sustainable, jackfruit-based protein a mainstream consumer choice.
