Greensect

We’re buzzing with excitement to share that Greensect has been featured in The Business Standard! 📰 From tackling food waste to pioneering sustainable animal feed, we’re proud to lead the way in innovative insect farming. Black Soldier Flies might be small, but their impact is huge—turning waste into valuable resources like protein and oil. Read about how we’re transforming challenges into opportunities for a greener future. 🌱 Check out the full story here:

Fish, poultry, and livestock producers in Bangladesh and around the world face growing challenges as food demand surges, while feed options for these animals remain limited. Greensect, our SBU, offers an innovative solution: Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae as an alternative feed. But what sets it apart from traditional options? 🔹 Resource Efficiency: Uses 95% less water and land.   🔹 Production Efficiency: Produces 200g of protein per kg of larvae.   🔹 Eco-Friendly: Emits 90% less greenhouse gases.   🔹 Waste Recycling: Feeds on food waste—no additional feed required.   🔹 Cost-Effective: More affordable for the farmers. Bangladesh wastes over 14 million tons of food annually. By cultivating BSF on this untapped resource, Greensect not only provides a cost-effective feed for the industry but also promotes a circular economy. #animalfeed #farming #livestockfarming #sustainability #Greensect #venturecapital #entrepreneurship #DIVC

We’re excited to share that Roko Bošnjak, a renowned black soldier fly (BSF) expert, flew all the way from the UK to lend his expertise to our project at Greensect. His fresh perspectives have been invaluable in helping us improve efficiency and optimize our operations. Roko also provided us with crucial guidelines for refining our data collection processes, setting us up for even more success. We’re truly grateful for his support and the impact he’s made on our journey toward sustainable innovation.

7 months after inauguration, we’re thrilled to announce that we have reached full capacity of production for our plant. We are now giving a second life to 1 tonne of food waste per day! As we continue to fine-tune our hive, our next step is to focus on making the farm more efficient, decreasing labor tasks, and continuing our research and development. For any inquiries, feel free to send us a message—we’re excited to connect and collaborate! 🪰

Our Managing Director and Co-Founder Ludovico Massari joined forces with Ecovia's CEO Rashik Hassan to shed light on the buzzing potential of turning waste into valuable solutions. A big 'thank you' to Rafsan Sabab for hosting the talk and giving space to this important conversation. Last but not least, we want to share our gratitude towards Dekko ISHO Venture Capital for accompanying us on this journey. We're just getting started—stay tuned as we take flight towards a sustainable future! 🪰

We're thrilled to announce the start of a game-changing journey that aims to revolutionize agriculture in Bangladesh and beyond. Our focus? The incredible Black Soldier Fly. This little insect allows us to turn food waste into essential nutrients for livestock and natural compost for our soils. Our approach is all about sustainability. It not only gives a new purpose to food waste but also uses minimal water, soil, and electricity compared to traditional protein sources like soy. At a time when farmers are dealing with rising costs, some resort to feeding livestock with less-than-ideal options like fish scraps and other by-products. The protein from the Black Soldier Fly, combined with quality ingredients, provides a healthier choice for poultry, fish, and shrimp feeds.
