Leveraging the regenerative potential of the insect biome to add biodiversity back into agriculture. Chapul launched in 2012 as the first insect protein product on the US market. Breaking down cultural barriers, we are normalizing edible insects with award-winning CPG food products, in order to create a pull-through demand for the sustainable potential of insect agriculture. From hand-making energy bars in a small kitchen, to a crowd-funded start-up, then on to winning an investment from Mark Cuban on the hit TV show, Shark Tank, we have created an international presence and ignited a revolution that is challenging the boundaries of food.Chapul Farms launched in 2019 as a way to continue growing the regenerative potential of insects to bio-convert food and ag waste into healthy foods and microbial rich soil. We work with selected domestic and international insect farms to scale their operations and provide the highest quality insect products to B2C and B2B markets. As project developers, we are building some of the world's largest insect farms, focused on un-compromising sustainability metrics.***Chapul Farms builds black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) farms to process/consume organics waste while producing premium animal feed and bio-fertilizer, effectively using insect microbiology to close agricultural production loops.These integrated, living systems (i.e., the BSFL facilities) are co-located with each waste stream and highly customized to the client and waste (a.k.a. feedstock). CURRENTLY open to connections around: funding Chapul Farms project development, potential customers (organics waste stream owners), offtake partners (parties interested in BSFL as ingredients or frass biofertilizer).
