Headquarters Shanghai, Shanghai, China
Haofood is a modern Asian plant-based food company inspired by rich Asian culinary traditions, utilising cutting-edge food & bio technology to craft tasty, healthier, cleaner from additive, and sustainable high-protein, high-fibre products. They are filling a gap in the UK market, where demand for both plant-based and Asian foods is growing, yet there is a lack of high-quality Asian-inspired plant-based options. Their product range includes plant-based dumplings, tempeh-based items, and clean-label plant-based chicken and duck with Asian flavours.

Notable Achievements

  • Become first company from Asia that innovates with clean label products: no additives, no preservatives, no artificial ingredients.
  • Closed seed round of $3.5M in April 2022. Investors include Rich Products Ventures, Big Idea Ventures, and Monde Nissin CEO, Henry Soesanto.

Currently Operating in Two Regions
