## About

Based in Ontario, Canada, and founded in 2020, New School Foods Inc. develops whole-cut, plant-based seafood that emulates the same texture, taste, nutritional benefits, and cooking experience of conventional seafood. Chris Bryson is the founder, and as of February 2023, he serves as the CEO of the company. In February 2023, New School Foods raised grant funding from Protein Industries Canada and Sustainable Development Technology Canada.

The company produces plant-based salmon fillet with aligned muscle fibres, connective tissue, lipids, and other components using patented muscle fibre and scaffolding technologies. The firm also provides muscle fibres, whole-cut scaffolding, and cold-based manufacturing.

The organisation plans to use the February 2023 funding to expand the team of food scientists, scale up its scaffolding technology, and build out a research and production facility.
