Mozza Foods
About
Mozza Foods is a food technology company based in Los Angeles, California, founded in 2018. The company focuses on producing plant-based cheese alternatives that replicate the taste, texture, and melting qualities of traditional dairy cheese. Mozza's mission is to create sustainable and cruelty-free cheese options that meet the growing demand for non-dairy products. The company specializes in engineering plants to produce animal proteins, particularly casein, which is essential in dairy products. Using soy as a medium, Mozza creates dairy-identical casein that is sold to cheese and dairy manufacturers. This innovative approach allows these manufacturers to produce more sustainable and environmentally friendly dairy products. Mozza Foods is committed to promoting sustainability and animal welfare, contributing to various United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
