28 Feb 2025 | New Roots
At the recent Biofach 2025 trade show, Freddy Hunziker, founder and CEO of New Roots, shared how the company ensures its vegan cheeses and dairy alternatives match the taste and nutrition of traditional dairy. He discussed New Roots’ commitment to sustainability, maintaining high nutritional quality while scaling production, and balancing affordability with its mission — donating 1% of sales to animal shelters. With the rising demand for plant-based dairy, Hunziker also unveiled New Roots’ latest innovations, including a cashew-based soft cheese, artisanal vegan cheeses, plant-based fondue, and a lupin-based protein-rich cheese.
