We believe that individual ideas can turn into a mass movement.
We believe in passionate, visionary entrepreneurs.
We believe in the power of green food brands as the love brands of tomorrow.
We know all about love brands: Our sister company Katjes is not only writing success stories as a brand, it is also a pioneer for green food: Since 2016, all Katjes products have been vegetarian, and by now, the majority of the product range is vegan.
Therefore, we primarily invest in innovative food concepts that bring joy to people and revolutionize the food industry. With our expertise and the Katjes Group network, we create charismatic brands: future-ready brands for a future-ready lifestyle.
High-protein, clean eating and low calorie diets: Healthy nutrition is individual. And sometimes eating healthy means allowing yourself to enjoy the occasional treat – Balance is the key! Today, self-determination is a massive trend in food culture. Everybody individually defines indulgence. With our portfolio, we want to help provide individual solutions for every individual.
A healthy lifestyle creates a healthy planet. That’s true. A reduced consumption of CO2-intensive foods, such as meat or cow’s milk, also allow our planet to breathe easier in the long run. The brands in our portfolio are working on the development of innovative products that sustainably save resources and help each individual change their own diet with joy and ease.
Change doesn’t happen overnight. If you want to achieve real change, you also have to create real alternatives. That is the goal of our investments. We focus on food innovations that address people’s needs: Pleasure without sacrifice, ecological action without the moral pointing finger. If we work together to flip the switch in our minds, we can leave green footprints in the long run.
