The US-based startup has developed a proprietary fermentation technology to produce alternative protein and a variety of human and animal nutrition products. 

“Food security is an ongoing concern in the gulf countries, so a sustainable, alternative protein has been of great interest to us,” said Mohab Ali Al-Hinai, Co-founder of Sustainable Investments. “We have selected WDL because it has developed a premium alternative protein that is price competitive with plant-based proteins, and it can be produced in existing infrastructure throughout the world.”
