Luya is the flavor loaded plant-based alternative to meat that doesn't try to be meat.
We rescue organic okara - a by-product of tofu and soy milk production of which more than 14 million tonnes go to waste globally every year - and turn it into ready-to-cook slices, chunks and patties. Using traditional fermentation methods and modern technology, we can skip all the additives and highly processed ingredients, and offer 100% natural, organic deliciousness made in Switzerland.
Location: Switzerland, Bern, Zollikofen
