One of our proudest achievements to date has been the launch of our FirstWave Food Incubator, a first-of-its-kind program aimed at aiding start-ups in launching new aseptically processed foods with locally sourced ingredients. 🌟 Our Incubator is proudly made possible with funding through the USDA's Local Food Promotion Program, so we wanted to take a moment to share more about this incredible initiative and our focus on local-based products. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐅𝐏𝐏? The LFPP is a program that enhances the distribution and consumption of locally produced food, ensuring that communities have access to fresh, healthy, and sustainable options. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐃𝐨 𝐖𝐞 𝐀𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧? By supporting local farmers and producers, the LFPP fosters economic growth within local economies and strengthens community ties, goals that we at FirstWave share! We're committed to putting our grant money where our mouth is and acting on the admirable values that the LFPP promotes. Therefore, applicants to our FirstWave Food Incubator will notice a specific regionality criterion: There must be intent to source ingredients within 400 miles of our FirstWave facilities! (Fun fact: the entire state of North Carolina is ~500 miles long! 😉) Not sure if your concept includes locally sourced ingredients? Don't worry – we also have a commitment to creative problem-solving at FirstWave, and our team is ready to help reposition participant formulations to include local components. Applications are now open for our next FWFI cohort, so share this post and spread the word to your favorite food entrepreneurs!

Did you know that cutting down on food waste is one of the most impactful ways to reduce your carbon footprint? At SinnovaTek, we're dedicated to identifying and reducing food loss every day. We make deliberate efforts to divert food loss during commercialization and transform it into valuable products through upcycling. Aseptic processing is instrumental in this process, extending the shelf life of products so that they remain fresh longer and less food is wasted. This June, we're proud to celebrate Upcycled Food Month in collaboration with Upcycled Food Association. Join us in our efforts to make a positive environmental impact!
