Guide for startups

March 6th, 2024

Are you looking to start an alternative protein company? Congratulations! You’re about to embark on an exciting journey. It won’t always be easy, but GFI has you covered. We’ve helped companies like Fazenda Futuro and N.ovo from their early stages to where they are today, and we can help you too.

This guide is designed to help you understand the steps involved in starting an alternative protein business and is the first startup resource designed specifically for the food industry. We hope you find it useful, not only by providing information on topics you may have heard of before, but also by showing you steps you may not have considered before. Each unit contains links to other resources, so you can dive deeper into the topics that are most relevant to you.

The Startup Guide is just one of the resources GFI offers entrepreneurs. If you would like to connect with the rest of our entrepreneur support network, please email us at gfibr@gfi.org that we will contact you.
