We combine sustainability with delicious snack fun for everyone. With our insect snacks we offer an alternative to conventional snack solutions that is affordable for everyone. Our crackers in various flavors and tortilla chips not only taste good, but look delicious as well. This way we save resources and break with food taboos. Let's snack with a twist!
We see a need to catch up in terms of sustainability. The desire for sustainable food is growing and the environmental awareness of consumers is increasing. Climate and environmental problems must be tackled urgently. We believe that insects contribute to the solution.
We want to contribute to making edible insects part of a healthy and sustainable diet in Europe. That is why we have set ourselves the goal of bringing insects from the farm to the plate. At the beginning we want to convince people with snacks. Our crackers are easy to integrate into everyday life and offer a good and tasty introduction to eating insects. In the medium term we want to start breeding the insects.
What is the project goal and who is the project for?
Together we want to reach 30 million curious people in Germany and convince them of our insect snacks.

Who are the people behind the project?
Native Foods bietet nicht nur leckere und gesunde Snacks für jedermann. Wir brennen für das Thema Insekten und als Experten auf diesem Gebiet arbeiten wir kontinuierlich an der Wissensvermittlung und dem Technologientransfer. Wir bieten Workshops und Vorträge zu dem Thema an und sind in der internationalen Kooperation aktiv. Wir ermöglichen Menschen in Entwicklungs- und Schwellenländern das Potenzial von Insekten in der Lebensmittelproduktion zu nutzen. Momentan ist Native Foods an PROTect, einer Ausgründung vom EIT Foods, beteiligt. PROTect hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt lokale Gemeinden in Mittelamerika und der Karibik zu befähigen, organische Abfälle zu tierischen Proteinen für die Lebensmittelproduktion mit Hilfe von Insekten umzuwandeln.
