Collaboration among F&B companies can be a mighty force in creating new concepts and products, when their goals are similar or complementary. For example, the difficult but necessary goal of implementing waste reduction or zero waste management calls for partnerships with a network of stakeholders. In this huge responsibility made up of plans and programs to reuse, reduce, and recycle, one small but significant method of saving resources is to upcycle food. Food upcycling is more complicated than it sounds. While it’s considered a trend, it is expected to grow roots in the industry, and its impact will be massive especially when individuals, groups, and companies will do their share of upcycling. Just take a look at the work of a growing number of start-ups across the globe. RE:Harvest is working with breweries across Southeast Asia to upcycle beer by-products. CRUST is using bread surplus and fruit peels from other manufacturers to produce sparkling water and beers. Confetti is turning ugly fruit into crispy snacks. Better yet, curated collaboration, as MISTA founder and head, Scott May, calls the product innovation and development cooperation among its members. “Curated Collaboration catalyes uniquely innovative and regenerative solutions that transcend what any one company can do on its own, while helping solve some of the global food system’s most challenging opportunities.” Last March, the group announced the release of a plant-based yogurt base with solutions from AAK, Chr. Hansen, Givaudan and Ingredion.Also in this issue, we include a report from Kerry, on how acetate-based meat preservation solutions compare with popular lactate-based preservatives. We also have a short overview of the meat extract market, with input from Jenny Kartika Rusli, business development director of PT Foodex Inti Ingredients.
