New Culture Partners with CJ CheilJedang to Streamline Costs of Animal-Free Mozzarella

New Culture, a Californian animal-free cheese producer, has partnered with South Korean biotech giant CJ CheilJedang to streamline the costs of producing their animal-free mozzarella. New Culture uses precision fermentation to create casein that mimics the properties of conventional cheese without the lactose, cholesterol, hormones, and antibiotics found in traditional dairy products. The partnership aims to reduce production costs and make their animal-free mozzarella more competitive in the market.

CJ CheilJedang brings expertise in fermentation technology and a history of investing in alternative protein companies to the partnership. This collaboration will help enhance New Culture's manufacturing capabilities and accelerate their growth in the animal-free dairy industry. By leveraging CJ CheilJedang's resources and sophisticated fermentation facilities, New Culture aims to transform the dairy industry with their innovative products.
