Lovely Day Foods is a European food biotech company creating bio-identical proteins derived from the next generation of precision fermentation. Founded in 2021, Lovely Day Foods is harnessing the power of microorganisms to cultivate high-performing, recombinant and GMO-free proteins suitable for food, beverages and nutraceuticals. By decoupling food production from traditional agriculture and farming, the company is on a mission to drive a sustainable and ethical food consumption and meet the growing demand for abundant, nourishing food while being kind to the planet. Lovely Day Foods launched Perfeggt, its first generation of egg replacers based on pea protein, in late 2022 for food service. The company replaced over one million chicken eggs with dishes such as Perfeggt scrambled, omelets, quiches, pancakes and waffles that were served in hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, canteens and events across Germany and Austria. In 2023, Perfeggt was named #20 out of 50 most popular startup brands in Germany according to a survey conducted by Jung von Matt with 48.000 participants.
