At Better Nature, we make protein without compromise - delicious, nutritious, plant-based and all-natural, just how we like it! We are the world’s first food-tech company focused on tempeh fermentation and innovation, and with the use of our proprietary starter cultures and processing methods, we are developing all-natural plant-based burgers, mince, rashers, and ribs that are not only clean-label, affordable and easy to cook but are also high in protein and fibre and have a delicious meaty bite.

Since Better Nature’s founding in early 2019, we’ve won 5 international Food Tech competitions, including the Best Startup of the Cohort at the ProVeg Incubator, Europe’s leading alternative protein incubator programme, and the Most Innovative Alternative Food Ingredient Award at Food Ingredients Europe 2019. We were also one of just six startups invited by the Good Food Institute to present on the mainstage of the Good Food Conference 2019, the world’s largest alternative protein conference.

Beyond our achievements in innovation, we’ve also been busy building the UK’s leading all-natural meat-free brand. We’re now listed in over 200 independent retailers and are currently in discussions with the UK’s largest supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s and Tesco. We are consistently one of the best-selling vegetarian protein brands on Amazon UK and have a returning customer rate of 48%+ on our D2C website. Recently, we’ve also launched in foodservice and have a listing with Bidfood - one of the UK’s largest foodservice distributors - all to fulfil our simple mission: to create foods that are better for people and better for the planet.
