Finding New Value

3EO was established in 2021 by four partners with a history of working in alternative protein extraction, with the goal of establishing a business that could commercialize waste streams into value-added ingredients from New Zealand.

We are passionate about New Zealand and the communities we live in, being sustainable and successful for the long term. As part of our commitment to sustainable value, we:

  • Support ongoing employment opportunities in the area of high-value manufacturing and STEM (teaching of science, technology, engineering and mathematics) for Canterbury.

  • We are constantly pushing the boundaries of innovation to unlock new nutritional possibilities that can be seamlessly integrated into the food chain, thereby enabling more sustainable food sources.

  • Boost economic growth for New Zealand by developing and supporting the commercialization of high-value products.

  • Live our values in diversity, supporting ongoing education, and living wage commitment.

  • Hold the core value of seeing New Zealand succeed on the world stage. As a small island nation, we believe industry must be able to work together, rather than against to meet global demand.
