Terra Bioindustries

Terra Bioindustries is a Canadian startup dedicated to decarbonizing supply chains through the innovative process of upcycling. At its core, the company's mission is to combat food waste by transforming undervalued agrifood byproducts into sustainable B2B inputs, thereby preventing carbon emissions and bolstering resource and food availability. With over 1 billion tonnes of agro-industrial waste generated annually, Terra Bioindustries aims to shift supply chains away from conventional linear models towards a more sustainable “nose-to-tail” circular economy. The company's upcycling platform salvages byproducts from landfills and extracts their valuable components such as sugars, proteins, and oils, offering them as ready-to-use inputs for various industries. Terra Bioindustries collaborates with byproduct producers to deliver upcycling solutions and supplies upcycled inputs for the food, biotech, and chemical sectors, supporting them in reducing their carbon footprints. Having secured a Non-Equity Assistance investment from MassChallenge Switzerland in May 2024, Terra Bioindustries is positioned as a promising player in the agriculture, food and beverage, and manufacturing industries with a compelling proposition for sustainable and efficient supply chain management.
