Remilk, a global leader in the development and production of animal-free dairy, has signed a strategic commercial agreement with Central Bottling Company (CBC Group). As per the agreement, CBC Group will develop and launch a new line of dairy drinks, cheeses, and yogurts created with Remilk’s animal-free milk protein, for the Israeli market. Commercial launch is planned within 12 months (pending regulatory approval).
Replacing traditional cow-milk protein with Remilk’s dairy-identical, non-animal milk protein enables CBC Group to craft a wide variety of real dairy products that are entirely free of lactose, hormones, and cholesterol, all without a single cow, and with a fraction of the resources required and environmental impact as compared to traditional dairy.
“We’re thrilled to partner with one of the most trusted and innovative dairy producers in Israel, with a legacy of more than 70 years making delicious dairy products for generations of consumers,” said Aviv Wolff, CEO and co-founder of Remilk. “This is a significant affirmation of the quality, safety, and versatility of Remilk’s protein. CBC Group is a first mover, playing a powerful role in helping drive a dairy industry evolution for the better of people and the planet. We’re working with regulators and innovators around the world to make non-animal dairy products available to consumers everywhere.”
Yoram Sagy, president of CBC Group said: “Our partnership with Remilk is in complete alignment with CBC Group’s values of introducing cutting edge innovations on the one hand and finding innovative solutions for the existing food and beverage market on the other, as part of The Core, our new center promoting innovative R&D.”
