About Flying Food Project

About company

The Flying Food project aims at rearing and eating crickets as a delicious, affordable and healthy solution for malnutrition. The project aspires to increase availability of tasty and nutritious food for low-income consumers in Africa. This large group often has a shortage on proteins, vitamins and minerals. Eating insects such as crickets provides a solution! The Flying Food project is based on a consortium between Kenyan, Ugandan and Dutch partners. It sets up a new value chain from rearing to processing, marketing and eating of crickets. Flying Food runs at the shores of the Victoria lake – the Nyanza region in Kenya and the Masaka region in Uganda.
