EARLIER WORK

Proof of a big idea.

In earlier work we’ve shown teasers of Grainstone’s emerging technology stack and capabilities. Our track record shows we can assemble partners for new value chains and get new products to market. Persistent, ambitious, inquisitive, capital efficient, nimble backed by a deep foundation of knowledge and experience.

This includes the world’s most sustainable flour, a high-protein barley flour ingredient developed from upcycled grain that won us ‘Best in the World - Environment category’ at the 2022 B Corp Awards.
