Fungi-Based Meat Alternatives

SMAQO Products are Sustainable and Versatile

The SMAQO products are a new range of fungi-based food solutions from the founder and former CEO of Mycorena Ramkumar Nair that are crafted with flavor, sustainability and versatility in the spotlight.

The products focus on fungi protein-based alternatives such as meatballs, burgers and bolognese to make them an easy swap for consumers in place of animal-based protein sources. The fungi also offers a range of additional benefits including a high-fiber content, low level of fat and complete amino acid profile to prioritize optimal nutrition.

Nair commented on the SMAQO products saying, "At SMAQO, we’re focused on building a business model that connects directly with consumers. That way, we can ensure that our innovations and high-quality products truly reach people and make a meaningful difference in how we experience food today."
