Value proposition

🍪 Bake a better future. 🌎

Named a World Changing Idea by Fast Company, Renewal Mill is an award-winning, next-generation ingredient company that fights global food loss by upcycling byproducts from food manufacturing into premium ingredients and plant-based products. We’re building a new circular economy of food that’s better for the people and the planet we love. Our flagship ingredient is organic okara, a high fiber, high protein, gluten-free flour made from the nutritious soybean pulp leftover when you make soy milk.

But, okara is just the beginning. Food waste is the world's $1.2 trillion problem, and our process can be applied to an array of byproducts, from oat pulp to potato peels to grape pomace, almond meal, and more. Backed by some of the top culinary minds in the industry and winner of the Institute of Food Technologists'​ (IFT) Future Food Disruptor of the Year award, Renewal Mill aims to be the food industry's go-to supplier for upcycled ingredients that will define the future of sustainable food.

Founded in 2016, we're proud to be a woman-owned business based in Oakland, CA.
