Mori: The Company Making Food Stay Fresher for Longer


Listen Later

Mori is a biotech startup that makes food last twice as long. 

Whether it’s fruits, vegetables, meat, or seafood, Mori extends the consumption timeframe for nearly all foods. How do they do it? Well, here’s how they describe it on their website, which I encourage you to check out:

“Our simple ingredients unravel the power of silk protein. From the farm to the shelf, our water-based protective layer is easily integrated at any wash step or station. Mori Silk is food protection technology that slows the natural spoiling process from many points in the supply chain.” 

Tune in to hear all the social, climate, and economic impacts of a technological breakthrough like this and why landing a $300 million contract from Whole Foods isn't crazy.
