Genius Foods
Was founded in 2014 by its founders Enrique & Flavio. Our purpose is to improve nutrition & sustainability in processed foods. Genius Foods Is a privately held food tech company that manufactures and sells clean label, plant based and natural ingredients. We’ve developed patented processing technologies and supply chain logistics that gives us a competitive edge in producing and distributing: (1) Natural flavors (2) Natural Colors (3) Functional Fibers (4) Vegetable protein concentrates.
Our Sourcing
We source our raw materials from agroindustrial byproducts, such as seeds and peels normally discarded from fruit and vegetable processing, “too ugly” and “too small” fruits and vegetables sourced directly from producers and undervalued crops, which are, crops that their nutritional and functional properties are much higher than their economic value.
By sourcing sustainably we asure that small producers receive extra income for their produce.
Technologies & processes
With our proprietary dehydration process we manage to keep more than 96% of antioxidants and volatile compounds in our powders. For this reason our natural colors have more pigments and our natural flavors have more flavor. For our functional fibers we only apply physical processes to improve water holding capacity, emulsion properties and texture properties making our fibers sustainable and clean label.
