Cargill: “The World Needs More Protein That Is Grown Sustainably To Keep Pace With Global Population Growth”

Cargill is addressing the global demand for sustainable protein options by collaborating with companies like ENOUGH to produce mycoprotein. This innovative ingredient offers a meat-like texture, protein profile, scalability, and sustainability, making it an ideal solution to meet the needs of the growing global population. Cargill's partnership with ENOUGH includes investment in ENOUGH's production facility in The Netherlands and plans to co-create protein alternative foods using ABUNDA® mycoprotein.

In response to evolving consumer preferences, Cargill is focused on developing plant-based dairy alternatives that meet consumer demands for nutrition and sustainability. The company showcased a plant-based yogurt alternative made with pea protein at the FiE event, catering to consumers looking for indulgent, yet nutritious dairy alternatives. As trends in the plant-based market continue to grow, Cargill is committed to developing innovative solutions in collaboration with customers to meet the changing needs of consumers seeking plant-based and functional dairy products.
