Developing plant-based nutrition
from the ocean
We are establishing a food production system in New Zealand which requires no freshwater, produces no methane, and is environmentally restorative due to the take-up of water-borne nitrogen and phosphates.
Explorers of modern food, investors in the future
Next generation of truly sustainable foods
SLC Ocean is a start-up venture solely focused on developing plant-based nutrition from the Ocean - i.e. 'Ocean Plant-Based Nutrition’.
Modern food pioneers
Our mission is to strengthen Aotearoa’s ‘modern food’ offering to complement our strong ‘traditional food’ sector.
A new class of products
We are seeking to produce environmentally friendly and versatile proteins from marine plants (e.g. 'Macroalgae' or seaweeds ) – targeting consumer markets of the 21st century. This will be high-quality protein for human consumption from the sea, alongside a cascade of associated products and ingredients.
