About Biohifas
Biohifas is a biotechnology startup that harnesses the power of fungal fermentation to upcycle food industry by-products—such as brewer’s spent grains and breadcrumbs into high-value, sustainable protein ingredients. By transforming waste into nutrition, Biohifas contributes to a circular bioeconomy while addressing the global demand for alternative proteins. The company was founded in 2022 in Spain by a team of biotechnologists and sustainability experts led by Dr. Marta Gutiérrez, with a mission to reduce food waste and promote eco-innovative solutions in the agri-food sector.
