Shandi is redefining protein by creating plant-based alternatives that deliver more protein than meat, at lower cost. Its proprietary protein, Canatein, removes the natural bean taste and offers a complete amino acid profile. Canatein is designed to work across a wide range of foods, including cookies, snacks, and staples like bread. It enables scalable, protein-rich, and sustainable food production without the need for meat.
