The insect sector has gathered increasing attention over the past<br />
few years, with the global insect <strong>pro</strong>tein market alone estimated<br />
to be worth US$343 million in 2021, and expected to grow to<br />
reach US$1.3 billion by 2027. As a sustainable solution to help<br />
minimize multiple unsustainable practices, the sector as a whole<br />
has seen investments totalling nearly US$1 billion but with<br />
multiple technological hurdles, few companies are yet to reach<br />
industrial scale, let alone <strong>pro</strong>fitability. See the story on page 14.<br />

in importance, especially in industries like pet food, which sell<br />

and fair treatment for workers, they expect food brands to handle<br />
these issues responsibly and ethically - and brands expect the<br />
same of their suppliers. One solution is introduced in this story.<br />
