Partnering with REDUCED

Our partnership with Rokkedahl reflects a shared dedication to sustainability and quality. Together, we upcycle chicken side streams from Rokkedahl’s operations, transforming these resources into premium savoury taste solutions. By doing so, we not only minimise food loss but also contribute to a more sustainable and circular food system.

Rokkedahl’s focus on transparency, clean-label farming, and resource optimisation ensures that every step of the process, from raising the chickens to delivering the side streams, meets the highest standards of responsibility. Their integrated value chain—from their fields to their slaughterhouse—allows them to maintain control over every detail, ensuring consistent quality in the raw materials we use.
