Clean. Plant-based. Sustainable.

Europe's first food impact investor.

Clean. Plant-based. Sustainable.

Our Mission

We shape the future of food by investing in tomorrow's iconic brands.

The Future is Plant-Based

How can we feed 10 billion people in 2050?

Environment

As the world population grows, so does the demand for animal products, increasing global CO2 emissions, freshwater usage and rainforest deforestation.

Society

Long, non-transparent supply chains are causing social ills worldwide. And even with millions of people starving, billion tons of food are wasted every year.

What do we want to eat in the future?

Lifestyle

Vegan and vegetarian, gluten- and grain-free, regional and seasonal, or slow food and clean eating – what we eat expresses our personal lifestyle and moral values.

Health

More conscious consumption comes in line with an enhanced awareness of nutrition associated risks like cancer, diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular diseases.

The Katjesgreenfood Impact

Our brands re-create the global food system by delivering healthier, more sustainable and ethical food.

Circular Economy

Climate Protection

Direct Trade

Animal Welfare

Resource Conservation
