Akua
AKUA is on a mission to increase consumer demand for one of the most sustainable sources of food on Earth: seaweed. The company is the first to pioneer clean and climate-saving meat & seaweed alternatives from ocean-farmed kelp, often hailed as the culinary equivalent of the electric car due to its massive environmental & nutritional benefits, all without sacrificing deliciousness. In 2021, AKUA created The World’s First Kelp Burger, which is now sold in over 1000 grocery stores, to 30+ restaurants, and to thousands of online customers nationwide. AKUA has since launched a plant-based Ground Meat, crab-kess Krab Cakes, two new Kelp Burger flavors, and SpongeBob SquarePants Kelp Patties in partnership with Nickelodeon.
