Vision

My vision for Go Cirkulär is to become the first Swedish Upcycled skincare brand with Stores and a presence all over the world. I see the brand selling all different personal care products that are inspired by a circular economy and more sustainable consumption models. I would love to open multi-spaces where people can shop, but also to do other activities, to learn and share with the community, of course, surrounded by good nordic aesthetics and design. I see Go Cirkulär as a movement and a way of living, perhaps of people like me, who care about their skin but feel we can make better choices every day to protect our planet.

Innoscentia

In most parts of our world, we are using a highly inefficient system to determine food shelf life. Because of the inability to monitor products, producers are forced to assume worst-case scenarios when setting expiry dates, why about 30% of the shelf life is lost and locked up in the system. As the concern for food quality and food safety is growing around the world, the trend among end consumers is leaning towards more conservative interpretations of expiry dates, which emphasizes the need for a systematic shift in shelf-life determination.

Vision

Our vision is to become the category leader within dynamic shelf life indication technologies, and to help producers, retailers and end consumers to drastically reduce food waste around the world. Our vision is essentially to make it possible for all of us to consume the food we produce, and by doing so, to create a sustainable food system.

KOASTAL

A 60% decrease in employment in the Swedish fishing industry has been identified from 2008 to 2018. Next to this, food production must double by 2050 to meet the demand. This two-folded need can be addressed by the production of seaweed has been proven to be sustainable in all three aspects of the world (economical, ecological and social). However, the current entry barriers are high with a lack of technical knowledge, the complex permit and administrative processes and the site selection.

We believe there is an urgent need for a shift in sea and ocean use. We must reconsider our approach to the sea and start exploiting its resources in a sustainable manner. Hence, we believe that sea farming of seaweed, is the solution to many environmental challenges. Therefore, we want to make sea farming of seaweed accessible to everyone. We want to lower barriers to enter the promising industry of cultivating seaweed, which provides a sustainable solution to many challenges.

Yelte

Providing the market with a new type of plant based drink that are both sustainable and nutritious. Most of the plant based drinks on market today are flawed in one of these two regards. Either the nutritional values are quite frankly very poor with high levels of sugars and low levels of proteins and healthy fatty acids, or the have a big negative environmental impact with de-forestation, excessive watering, lenghty transports etc. Our product is both high nutritious and highly sustainable.

Our vision is to push the boundries of the next generation of plant based sustainable foods. We want to make the sustainable choice an easy one by providing a product that is both delicious and nutritious. Consumers will no longer have to sacrifice anything when choosing a truly sustainable alternative.

Heja Havre

Heja havre simplifies the stressful everyday with a useful and tasty instant porridge. Perfect for the conscious on-the-go individual. Made on scanian oats. Just add water and we’ll fix the rest!

Problem: Havré is 22 years old, studies OATology at university and dances ballOAT in his spare time. In short, Havré has a lot of things to do and is constantly on-the-go. Havré is sitting on campus studying, he is tired and broke. He suddenly becomes very hungry, what should he do now?

He only has time for something fast, as he will soon have to take the bus to his ballOAT lesson. But at the university café only there are only sweets and cakes, which unfortunately are not vegan. Havré needs a snack that gives him long-lasting energy so he can study longer and go to his dance training. What is he going to do?

Hi Havré! We have got a solution for you! Unhealthy snacks should not limit anyone’s everyday life. We offer a snack that is both good, nutritious and filling. Above all, its fast and you can eat it on-the-go … It’s a vegan instant porridge!

Vision

Heja Havre will, at first, mainly be sold in Skåne (south of Sweden). This is because the company has Skåne as a starting point, but also because we care about the local aspect of our company. We think it is important that a locally produced product is also sold locally. This is to minimize transport and make it as sustainable as possible! Despite this, we at Heja Havre see an opportunity to achieve sales nationally and within Scandinavia in a sustainable way in the future.

Heja Havre’s ambition is to grow large on the oat market and thus Heja Havre is under development and working to scale up production. After carrying out a hand-scaled production, we have learned an incredible amount. Now it’s time for us to become more large-scale, so that we can offer our customers larger volumes and more mushy snacks! We are looking for a contract manufacturer that meets Heja Havre’s requirements as well as our customers’ requirements for durability, packaging, ingredients etc. There for Heja Havre 2.0 will be launched in fall. We are working hard to reach this goal while keeping our standards and product quality.

Within 1 year from launch, our goal is to be available at at least 10 local ICA retailers in Skåne. As well as establishing a collaboration with a large online retailer, eg Mathem, Apotea, Meds etc. We also want to grow in the gym/workout industry, which we hope to be able to do by starting by being present at 3 sports facilities (gyms or similar). We also want to be available at at least 5 cafés in Skåne. Also establish 10 regular corporate customers, who subscribe to a “porridge box” that they receive every month. Finally our goal is to have a functioning E-commerce that can represent Heja Havre and what we stand for!

Within 5 years, we want to develop our range of oat-based products and be able to offer even more good vegan snacks filled with oats. Imagine small oat balls with the natural sweetness from oats, rolled in vegan chocolate. The perfect snack on-the-go and as a Saturday treat! And launch a larger family pack of instant porridge!

The possibilities are endless with oats;)

We also aim to be in 3 chains in the Swedish grocery trade. In addition to this, an on-the-go product must of course be available where people are most on the go. Thus, a goal to establish dealers such as Pressbyrån, 7/11, Statoil etc, is highly relevant. Heja Havre also wants to be available where you travel and thus wishes to be able to enjoy a hotel chain’s breakfast buffet.

Sustainable Food Waste SFW

Today, the food chain doesn’t know how the shelf life of frozen and chilled food is affected by changes in temperature. To be on the safe side in the event of a temperature deviation, the food is thrown away. The innovative SFW app can, with the help of a secured database, deliver clear and up-to-date information on how a product’s shelf life has been affected by a rise in temperature. Which benefits the various players in the food chain through ensure shelf life, reduced food waste and a reduced environmental impact.

In order to meet the need for food from the global population increase, more food must be produced in the next four decades than in the last 9,000 years! At the same time as global hunger is increasing, a third of all food produced is thrown away, a large part of that fraction arises due to temperature deviations. One problem is very often the uncertainty surrounding remaining shelf life. Sustainable Food Waste SFW is a FoodTech startup that wants to contribute to a responsible and sustainable handling of tempered food with a clear vision: No food waste caused by temperature deviations!
