Planet A Foods

Planet A Foods is a B2B food technology company that leverages a proprietary fermentation platform to create sustainable, resilient food ingredients. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Germany, the company specializes in developing alternatives to resource-intensive ingredients, most notably cocoa. Their flagship product, ChoViva, is a cocoa-free chocolate alternative made from sunflower seeds that replicates the taste and texture of conventional chocolate while significantly reducing carbon emissions. By utilizing scalable fermentation technology, the company aims to decouple food production from climate-sensitive and supply-constrained resources, providing the industry with future-ready solutions for global supply chains.

These ingredients are designed for integration into mass-market consumer products, helping manufacturing partners and brands address their Scope 3 emissions targets. Planet A Foods has successfully scaled its operations to support global confectionery producers, with its ingredients featured in various products sold by major retailers and brands. With recent funding rounds and international expansion, the company continues to advance its technology platform to include other customizable fats and oils, aiming to establish itself as a key supplier in the global effort to make the food industry more sustainable and resource-efficient.
