Shrimp from Seaweed - New Wave Foods

Food Meets Climate Podcast with Simon Newstead

With a background in material science and engineering, Michelle Wolf always wanted to use her technical skillset to help make the world a better place. Being inspired by plant-based beef alternatives gaining traction in the mainstream, she began to learn more about other industries and realised that despite the opportunity, nobody was really looking at seafood. Fast forward to now and Michelle is the co-founder of plant-based seafood company New Wave Foods who aim to protect our oceans, starting with sustainable shrimp. In this week’s episode we delve deeper into the company’s mission, as well as their unique ingredients and how these compare to other options on the market. We also discuss New Wave’s food service focus, their recently announced partnership with Dot foods, plus more.
