Nepra Foods has partnered with an industry expert to develop a high-performance hemp protein for food manufacturing, with a focus on improving taste, texture, and functionality for baked goods. The protein, currently in early production in the United States, is expected to be patented and shared between the two companies. Nepra Foods aims to make hemp protein the gold standard in food innovation due to its complete protein profile, allergen-free properties, sustainability, and potential as an egg replacement.
Hemp protein offers nutritional benefits such as being a complete protein source with all nine essential amino acids, as well as being free from common allergens like gluten, soy, and nuts. With its gelation properties enhancing texture and functionality in baked goods, Nepra Foods plans to expand its use into other applications as production capacity grows. The hemp protein market is anticipated to reach over $1 billion by 2035, driving demand for alternatives to traditional protein sources like soy and pea protein. Nepra Foods is focused on refining production and scaling up manufacturing to meet the increasing market needs for hemp protein products.
