## About

Founded in 2015 by its CEO, Olympia Yarger, and based in Canberra, Australia, Goterra PTY LTD., operates as a provider of biological services (MIBs) and developer of infrastructure that provides food waste management solutions and livestock feed made from farmed insects and monogastric animals. In June 2020, Goterra raised AUD 8 million series A funding co-led by investors Grok Ventures and Tenacious Ventures, with participation from Eleanor Venture, CAGES Foundation, Impact Investment Group, and Rampersand. As of 2023, the company has partnered with companies like Lendlease, Woolworths, Capital Brewin Co., and many more.

Goterra offers waste management infrastructure that integrates with various existing waste infrastructures, including autonomous waste management units that have insects that help consume food waste. The company uses fly larvae that convert processing waste, kitchen waste, and retail waste into sustainable protein and fertilizer. The company provides both onsite infrastructure with autonomous units and waste collection services.
