About

Founded in 2022 and based in Berlin, Germany, Esencia Foods UG, operates as a provider of sustainable and healthy food alternatives for seafood and fish products. It utilizes mycelium, the root structure of fungi, to create vegan fish and meat alternatives through a proprietary solid-state fermentation process. The company was founded by Hendrik Kaye and Bruno Scocozza. With Hendrik's background in business leadership and Bruno's expertise in culinary arts and science, Esencia Foods bridged the gap between gastronomy and cutting-edge technology.


Esencia Foods UG closed a round of venture funding from new investor Big Idea Ventures. The production of Esencia Foods is driven by mycelium-powered technology. The company's offerings boast a unique texture that closely mimics traditional seafood, providing a new alternative protein source. Esencia Foods' revenue is bolstered by strategic partnerships with leading venture capitalists and angel investors who recognize the transformative potential of the company's innovative approach to food production.
