Wageningen, Tuesday, 23 September 2025.
Revyve, a Dutch food-tech firm, has raised €24 million to expand its use of brewery yeast for egg replacement, enhancing food sustainability and reducing CO₂ emissions by 80%.

Funding and Strategic Partnerships

Revyve, a promising food-tech scale-up based in Wageningen, Netherlands, has raised €24 million in a Series B funding round. The investment will support the commercialization of its innovative functional yeast proteins designed to replace eggs in a variety of food products. The funding round was co-led by ABN AMRO Sustainable Impact Fund and Invest-NL, with additional support from Brabantse Ontwikkelings Maatschappij (BOM), Lallemand Bio-Ingredients’ Swiss affiliate Danstar Ferment, and Grey Silo Ventures [1][2][3].

Innovative Approach to Egg Replacement

Revyve’s novel approach involves utilizing spent brewer’s yeast to develop ingredients that mimic the texture and functionality of eggs, while significantly reducing CO₂ emissions by 80% compared to traditional eggs. This aligns with the growing trend of food manufacturers seeking sustainable alternatives to animal-based ingredients due to rising egg prices and sustainability goals [1][4][5].

Global Expansion and Production Scaling

With this latest funding, Revyve plans to expand its production capabilities at its Dinteloord facility in the Netherlands, which is already operating at full capacity. The expansion will increase the facility’s production output to over 1,600 tonnes per year, enabling Revyve to meet increasing global demand [1][3][4]. The company is already serving markets across Europe, the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Australia, and plans to extend its reach into Asia Pacific [5][6].

Impact on Sustainability and Market Position

Revyve’s ability to produce scalable, functional, and sustainable egg alternatives positions it as a leader in the global protein transition. Its yeast proteins not only provide an eco-friendly solution but also offer compelling economics for food manufacturers. The company’s innovative process preserves the native functionality of yeast proteins without using enzymes or solvents, making it a clean and sustainable choice for the food industry [2][4][6].
