There’s yet another Australian plant-based meat startup on the scene, with Harvest B securing $4.5 million in combined venture capital and grant funding.
SmartCompany had a chat with co-founder Kristi Riordan to find out a little more about the new kid on the alternative proteins block, and to find out how the infrastructure around plant-based meats is developing.
What is Harvest B?
Harvest B develops and produces animal-free ingredients, and distributes them to the brands cooking up plant-based meat products.
Founded last year by Kristi Riordan, Alfred Lo and Werner Fuggersberger, it’s intended to serve the emerging plant-based industry by creating a local supply chain of high-quality ingredients.
