Pioneering sustainable meat alternatives for a greener future 

The global food industry is at a crossroads, facing significant environmental challenges, including high levels of CO2 emissions, resource inefficiency, and the growing demand for protein as the population expands. Kyomei addresses these issues through its innovative molecular farming technology, which uses plants to produce animal-identical proteins. This approach replicates the taste and nutritional value of traditional meat while drastically reducing the environmental footprint associated with animal farming. By leveraging plants as bioreactors, Kyomei’s method conserves water and land resources, providing a sustainable solution to the world’s protein needs.

Achieving authentic flavor with protein innovation

Kyomei’s proprietary technology leverages advanced molecular farming techniques to produce key proteins, such as myoglobin, which are essential for flavor and nutrition. By genetically engineering plants to serve as hosts for these proteins, Kyomei’s process eliminates the need for conventional animal farming, a practice that is both resource- intensive and environmentally harmful due to methane emissions and extensive land use. This plant-based approach provides a sustainable alternative that meets the rising consumer demand for products with the taste and quality of traditional options without harming the environment.

Expanding horizons in sustainable markets

Happiness Capital’s support has been crucial in advancing Kyomei’s technology from proof-of-concept to scalable production. Through strategic guidance and access to a global network of experts, they have helped Kyomei navigate regulatory challenges and explore new applications for its technology. This collaboration has been instrumental in Kyomei’s ability to refine its product offerings and expand its market reach, particularly in regions with high demand for sustainable protein alternatives.

Charting the path to market expansion

Since its inception, Kyomei has achieved remarkable milestones, including the successful scaling of its production capabilities and the development of new applications for its plant- based proteins. The partnership with Happiness Capital has been pivotal in this growth, offering the resources and insights needed to navigate complex markets and scale operations effectively.

Looking forward, Kyomei is focused on further scaling its production, launching new products, and expanding into additional markets. The ongoing partnership with Happiness Capital remains a cornerstone of Kyomei’s strategy, ensuring that the company has the support it needs to lead the way in sustainable food production. Together, Kyomei and Happiness Capital are working to transform the global food system, offering a viable and sustainable alternative to traditional meat production.
