Formo has just scored €35M in venture debt from the European Investment Bank (EIB), as part of the InvestEU scheme. This incredible milestone reflects a shared belief in reimagining the food system through innovation—and a serious vote of confidence in Formo's mission to reshape dairy, one indulgent, animal-free cheese at a time. 🧀✨ But this funding isn’t just about bigger vats or more Koji (although we’re doing that, too). It’s about building a brighter, greener future: ✅ Advancing Europe’s leadership in bioeconomy innovation ✅ Boosting global competitiveness with sustainable tech ✅ Reinforcing the resilience of our food systems ✅ Making sustainability a delicious reality At Formo, we’re proving that bold ideas and cutting-edge technologies can come together to create a kinder, more sustainable world—without compromising on taste or texture. With Koji-based cheeses leading the charge and more exciting innovations on the horizon (hello, animal-free casein!), this funding will accelerate our journey toward scaling transformative food tech. The EU’s backing sends a powerful message: Europe is at the forefront of the sustainable food revolution. Together, we’re not just imagining a better food system—we’re building it. 🌱💪 A massive thank you to the European Commission and European Investment Bank (EIB) - and everyone else in our corner. This is only the beginning. The future of cheese—and our planet—is looking brighter every day. #SustainableCheese #FoodTechInnovation #KojiRevolution #FutureOfFood

𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱! 💙 Koji-Protein is our superhero, making our Frischhain deliciously creamy. Thank you REWE Group for sharing! 🫶
Bekannter Geschmack, modern interpretiert 🧀 Wir engagieren uns kontinuierlich dafür, innovative Start-ups zu fördern und mit ihnen zusammenzuarbeiten. Hierzu zählt auch das Start Formo. Formo setzt bei seiner Käsealternative statt auf Milch auf das natürliche Protein des Koji-Pilzes, das mithilfe von Mikrofermentation gewonnen wird. Das Protein verleiht der Käsealternative die bekannte Textur und einen authentischen Geschmack. „Wir sind ständig auf der Suche nach neuen, innovativen Produkten, mit denen wir unseren Kund:innen nachhaltigere und geschmacklich überzeugende Alternativen bieten können. Formo hat uns mit seinen tierfreien Käsealternativen sofort überzeugt – nicht nur bei der Produktion, sondern vor allem beim Geschmack, der für uns wirklich herausragend ist. Die REWE Group unterstützt traditionell innovative Start-ups und ist häufig der First Mover unter den großen deutschen Lebensmitteleinzelhändlern“, sagt Clément Tischer, Head of FoodTech der REWE Group. Die Produkte von Formo sind bei uns bei REWE erhältlich. #FoodTech #REWEGroup

🌍🧀 Formo x CNN: The Future of Cheese is Here! 🧀🌍 We’re honored to be spotlighted by CNN for our work in revolutionizing animal-free cheese through micro fermentation. By harnessing the natural power of Koji, an ancient culinary hero, we’re crafting cheeses that taste incredible, feel indulgent, and are kinder to the planet. 🌱 The stats tell the story: animal agriculture accounts for 12% of global greenhouse emissions, and cheese lovers everywhere deserve a sustainable alternative. That’s where Formo steps in—delivering bold, creamy, crave-worthy flavors without compromise. From the launch of our Frischhain cheeses to scaling new heights in sustainability, we’re proud to be reshaping the $240 billion global cheese market. This is just the beginning of a tastier, more sustainable food system. Check out CNN’s feature to learn more about how micro-fermentation is changing the game. Together, we’re proving that indulgence and impact can go hand in hand.
