MATR Foods
About us
At MATR Foods we use the art of traditional fungi fermentation on a mix of Nordic organic vegetables, legumes and grains to create a new healthy plant ingredient rich with deep umami flavour and a juicy tender bite.
MATR was started in Copenhagen, Denmark by a group of people in 2021 who wanted to produce healthy and sustainable food. We saw a need for a change, not only in the selection of available plant-based foods, but also in the way we utilise our produce. Through research, trial and testing we came up with a new way to create delicious food from the unwanted from agriculture. But this did not happen without a strong team.
The people behind MATR are a broadly composed group who represent the world of research and food with a special focus on nutrition and microbiology, innovation and engineering, entrepreneurs and chefs from the Nordic culinary universe, including food entrepreneur Claus Meyer. Since then, our team has steadily grown to encompass a dedicated team of scientists, food sector veterans, chefs, nutrition experts, sustainability buffs – passionate people all.
