Ezi nkampani zimbini zisandula ukuhlanganisa iimveliso zokuqonda ngcono amathuba eeproteni eziswiti kunye ne-stevia. Ubambiswano lwaphehlelelwa kulandela ingxelo entle eqokelelwe emva kolu vavanyo. Kwinyanga ezayo, u-Ingredion kunye no-Oobli baya kutyhila ezinye zeziphumo eziphuhliswayo kwi-Future Food Tech umcimbi e-San Francisco, e-US, ukusuka kwi-13-14 Matshi 2025.
I-Oobli yezigidi ezili-18 zeedola ze-Series B1 inkxaso yenkxaso-mali ibonise inkxaso evela kukutya okucwangcisiweyo okutsha kunye nabatyali-zimali bezolimo, kuquka i-Ingredion Ventures, iLever VC kunye ne-Sucden Ventures. Abatyali-mali abatsha bajoyina abaxhasi abakhoyo, i-Khosla Ventures, i-Piva Capital kunye ne-B37 Ventures phakathi kwabanye.
U-Ali Wing, i-CEO e-Oobli, uthe: "Iiprotheyini ezimnandi zongezwa ixesha elide kwi-toolkit ye-sweeteners engcono kakhulu kuwe. Ukusebenza kunye namaqela angcono kakhulu eklasini ye-Ingredion ukudibanisa i-sweeteners yendalo kunye nenoveli yethu yeeprotheyini ezimnandi kuya kuzisa izisombululo zokutshintsha umdlalo kolu didi lubalulekileyo, olukhulayo kunye nexesha elifanelekileyo."
I-Ingredion's Nate Yates, i-VP kunye ne-GM yokunciphisa iswekile kunye ne-fiber fortification, kunye ne-CEO yenkampani ye-Pure Circle ishishini le-sweetener, uthe: "Kudala sihamba phambili kwizinto ezintsha kwizisombululo zokunciphisa iswekile, kwaye umsebenzi wethu ngeeprotheni ezimnandi sisahluko esitsha esinomdla kulo hambo".
Wongeze wathi: "Nokuba siphucula iinkqubo ezikhoyo zesweetener ngeeproteni eziswiti okanye sisebenzisa izimuncumuncu zethu ezisekiweyo ukuvula amathuba amatsha, sibona intsebenziswano emangalisayo kula maqonga".
Ubambiswano lulandela izibhengezo zamva nje zika-Oobli zokuba ifumene iileta ze-US FDA GRAS 'akukho mibuzo' yeeproteni ezimbini eziswiti (i-monellin kunye ne-brazzein), eqinisekisa ukhuseleko lwenoveli yeeproteni eziswiti' ukuze zisetyenziswe ekutyeni nakwimveliso yesiselo.
