We’re educating people on how cool it is to collectively eat less meat.
We care about nourishing people and planet. We are passionate about creating an equitable and inclusive food system.
We imagine a world where the meat we crave is in sync with the planet – without all the greenhouse gas emissions or cholesterol of conventional meat. At Prime Roots, we believe we can feed the world in a way that is truly sustainable and accessible to all. We make meat better by going back to the roots of nature. With our plant based whole food protein meats and seafoods, we’re paving the future of food– a cleaner, brighter, and more delicious future.

It’s A Nutrient-Dense Revolution
We’ve made sure that all of our meats and meals are chock full of all the nutrients (and more) that your body would get from traditional meat products. Prime Roots products aren’t just better-for-you meats. Here’s how Prime Roots punches out other plant-based proteins.

More protein than meat (Who says you need meat to build muscle?)
Contains all the amino acids that you’d get from meat(Hello, better body function!)
Whole food protein (Hyper-processed protein? Bye, Felicia.)
Naturally meaty textures and rich umami flavors (Nom nom.)
Vegan comfort foods for meat-eaters and plant-lovers alike (Yes to foods you’re familiar with!)
Growing up as the daughter of a famous chef and restauranteur, Co-Founder Kim Le has been a foodie and meat lover all of her life. In college she discovered the true environmental costs of meat – from climate change and water pollution to deforestation and species extinction. She gradually realized that the single greatest positive impact we can have on the planet is eating less meat. This shocking discovery inspired Kim to scout for the best meat alternatives at her local grocery store. Most of the options were bland and lackluster. Ultra-processed and just underwhelming. Since then, being a microbiologist and fascinated by the big things you can’t see, Kim has been determined to combine love for the art and science of food to create meats that are truly without compromises in taste and texture.
From a young age, Kim was fascinated by Koji and had a crazy thought to try using an ingredient typically reserved for Michelin star chefs as the whole food meat alternative packed with the meaty flavor you love and more nutrients than traditional proteins. Through ancient techniques for modern times, we’re creating and re-imagining protein for a sustainable future – for plant-lovers and meat lovers alike.
