About Sustainable Food Asia

While the SDGs are being addressed globally, the population continues to expand and is expected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, and food issues in particular are a global challenge.

We are working to make it possible to provide sustainable foodstuffs as quickly as possible by cooperating with companies in Japan and Southeast Asia that are conducting research and development of sustainable foodstuffs.

We have built a platform for sourcing, processing, and selling sustainable food ingredients, and we also support startup companies in the Asian area from sourcing to developing alliances with major Japanese companies and developing conferences.
