IT ALL STARTED IN 2013 AS A SIMPLE IDEA

Every day, countless breads, croissants & sandwiches end up in the trash in the evening. Many now realize that these are still in absolutely perfect condition and far too good for the garbage can.

The four founders were inspired by ventures in Germany and France. The Äss-Bar hits the nerve of the time exactly.

For this reason, the Äss-Bar has made it its business to sell bread and baked goods from the day before.

The baked goods are picked up every morning from various bakeries in the respective vicinity.

In the process, several hundred tons have already been “saved” – and not only the environment is pleased, but also the wallet, because the baked goods are given away at greatly reduced prices.

Today, Äss-Bar has around 90 employees throughout Switzerland, including franchise partners in French-speaking Switzerland.

AlpenPionier’s vision: to recultivate food hemp in Switzerland and bring it back to the plate. But if you think the hemp plant is a new fad, you’re missing the point. After all, hemp is one of the oldest traditional useful and ornamental plants on earth and is considered one of the greatest suppliers of nutrients that nature has to offer.

Since 2018, the pioneers from Graubünden have been on the road to turn the vision of a modern use of the hemp plant into reality. The Alpine pioneers have already achieved the goal of bringing the most underestimated crop of our time back onto the menu in many places. Today, they process several tons of hemp seeds in their own production facility in Zizers, which they grow and harvest together with Swiss organic hemp farmers, thereby making food production a bit more regional and sustainable.

Planted combines proprietary texturing and fermentation technologies to produce meat from plant-based proteins, focusing on delicious flavor, meaty and juicy texture, using only natural ingredients. Planted designs and structures its meat in every size, shape and fibrous texture and believes it will surpass animal meat in the future in terms of taste, sustainability, health, efficiency and price. Planted is committed to using only natural ingredients and no additives in all of its products, setting an entirely new standard in the plant-based meat category, making it a healthy and sustainable choice for all. Truly better than meat from animals.

A growing population as well as increasing life expectancy and higher income are the main reasons for the increase in global demand for meat. However, the current scale of the animal meat industry is more than unsustainable. Planted wants to change that. The Zurich-based food tech spin-off from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) was founded in 2019 and quickly built intellectual property around its technological approach, for which it currently holds several patents.

Planted produces its meat in a glasshouse production facility in Kemptthal, Zurich, Switzerland – the first transparent meat production facility open to the public.

Planted meat is available in over 3,000 restaurants and more than 3,800 retail outlets in Switzerland, Germany, Austria, France, Italy, the UK and BeNeLux, as well as through its own pan-European web store. Planted meat ranges, each consisting of different protein sources (peas, oats, sunflower), currently include planted.chicken, planted.pulled, planted.kebab, planted.schnitzel and planted.bratwurst. In addition, there are various limited editions in close collaboration with celebrity chefs such as Tim Raue, Nenad Mlinarevic or Sebastian Copien. But rest assured that the science-driven team is hungry for change and working hard at the Planted factory and science labs in Switzerland to revolutionize the food chain.

At Terra Preta, we are developing a more transparent carbon reduction solution for food and beverage producers with additional social impact in rural communities in the Global South.

Climate change, land and water scarcity pose an increasing challenge to feeding an ever-growing world population. At Umami, we believe that food can be produced sustainably even in adverse or extreme environments. To this end, we have built a vertical aquaponic farm in the heart of Zurich. Based on permaculture thinking, we have created an ecosystem with a variety of organisms living in synergy with each other, while taking advantage of all the benefits of traditional vertical farming. Each of these organisms contributes to the nutrient cycle by converting waste products into a resource for other species. In this way, we have created a balanced environment so rich in nutrients that we do not need to use external resources such as fertilisers, artificial pesticides or antibiotics. Our first products, microgreens, are available on the market B2B2C in the main Swiss retail outlets and B2B for the catering industry through Bianchi, Marinello and other intermediaries.

We design and build biospheres where multiple foods can be produced simultaneously to optimise the use of resources and space. We then scale our biospheres to achieve operational excellence and have consistent and reliable production to meet industry demand. Umami’s broad-based team has expertise in a variety of fields including business administration, marketing, product development, mechanical engineering, food science and environmental engineering.

A new wind turbine

Agile Wind Power is developing the world’s first vertical-axis wind turbine that is economically attractive for distributed generation of renewable electricity. Due to the advantages of this vertical axis wind turbine, areas and markets can be served that cannot be realized with conventional wind turbines due to lack of acceptance. The first products, A32 and A45 (rated power of 750 kilowatts and 1.5 megawatts, respectively), are ideally positioned for distributed power generation where lower environmental impact is of high relevance (residential areas). The technology can also be used in even larger wind turbines.

That’s why our Nova heat pumps are designed for exactly those applications where alternatives to harmful oil and gas are often scarce. Owners of older buildings and MFHs have often had problems finding a heat pump that is not only sustainable, but also heats reliably and saves costs in the process. After two years of development in a converted garage, however, that is exactly what we are achieving today. Independently tested, Nova machines are now considered among the most efficient in the world and are certified accordingly in Switzerland and the EU. Through better use of electricity and the use of a particularly sustainable refrigerant, our products not only save heating costs for electricity, but also several tonnes of CO2 for each year of operation.

Smart software with PV and solar integration and SmartHome capacities keep the machine always up to date and ready for the next technical revolution. Because we know that the future is uncompromising.

Nutrai tackles the issue of malnutrition in hospitals. Studies have shown that patients with malnutrition have a significantly increased risk of morbidity, mortality, hospitalization and re-hospitalisation. However, hospital staff lack the time to perform a systematic screening of food intake for patients. To tackle this issue local camera systems are installed in hospital kitchens to record food intake by taking before and after images of the serving. Computer vision and machine learning are then used to process these images to calculate a patient’s food intake. These data forms the basis for the inclusion of nutrition data in the patient information system. In addition, nutritional data should be added as vital parameters available to nurses and physicians throughout a patient’s stay.
