About
Mermade Seafoods is a cellular aquaculture company specializing in the production of cell-based seafood. The company's approach enables the mass production of cultured seafood using a fermentation-based process that results in clean, healthy, and sustainable protein-rich seafood products. Mermade Seafoods aims to be the first company to provide a circular method of production using side-stream valorization of growth media. The company's technology is based on upcycling biological waste products from spent growth media into new, nutrient-rich food for the growing cells. Mermade Seafoods' technology is designed to overcome high production costs and waste accumulation.
