Description: GFI India is the central expert organization, thought leader, and convening body in the Indian ‘alternative protein’ or ‘smart protein’ sector.
Around the world, innovators are creating the meat, eggs, and dairy foods of the future - made directly from plants, cells, or microorganisms. At the Good Food Institute India, we’re laying the groundwork for this sunrise industry in one of the world’s most important countries, and demonstrating a model for a more secure, sustainable, and just food system in the developing world.
--> What is Smart Protein? The alternative protein sector is at the forefront of global food innovation, with major benefits for people, planet, and profit. Making foods that taste the same or better and cost the same or less than their animal-derived counterparts, with vastly lower impacts on planetary and public health - now that’s smart protein.
Not your grandparents’ soya nuggets! Plant-based options look, taste, and cook like their conventional counterparts. Like animal products, plants comprise protein, fat, vitamins, minerals and water - everything we need to make meat, egg, and dairy alternatives that are not a sacrifice, but a simple switch.
