A community shaping the future of food

ConServ Sverige

More than 20Million take-away packages are used by restaurants in Sweden every year. The alternatives to plastic available today require a lot of chemicals in the manufacturing and require chemical barriers to resist hot liquids and greasy sauces. These chemicals can disintegrate and accumulate in our body as we consume take-away foods and get into our soil and water during incineration/ recycling. We propose a natural leaf-based solution with zero added chemicals.

Our vision is to remove chemicals altogether from food packaging. We strive to utilize the natural resources in its purest form to be truly sustainable and circular leaving behind nothing. The idea contributes to 4 of the 17 UN sustainability goals. We pledge to act as responsible producers with minimum resources and high energy efficiency. Through the business, we partner with Indian farmers and employ rural Indian women contributing to the economic development of marginal communities.

We like to call it the next generation non-alco spirit, at all means it’s no doubt different from the rest of the subtle products on the market. Gnista is hand-made only an hour’s drive from the HQ in Malmo, and has been made possible using a unique combination of gastronomy, state-of-the-art technology and classic spirit making techniques (where distillation, brewing and barrel ageing are central).

There are several different fishing methods, several different farming methods and lots of different labels that very few know what they mean or if they really do any good. The challenge is to develop a sustainable fishfood chain.

Vision

The vision of Gårdsfisk is to integrate aquaculture with agriculture and raise robust, herbivorous and fantastically delicate fish on land, manure can end up on arable land, the water is used twice, first in fish farming and then as irrigation, we avoid eutrophication, overfishing, destroyed ecosystems and do not risk infect wild fish.

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.
