ABOUT US

With yfood, we are the market leader in the smart food category in Germany, a new category of products with a complete nutrient profile that are quickly and easily available at any time. Since our founding in 2017, we have been making innovative “complete food” in the form of drinks, bars as well as powders, enabling simpler, better nutrition - especially in everyday situations where it is not always easy to have a balanced diet due to time or availability issues. The products contain all the essential micro- and macronutrients our body needs - without sacrificing taste. Sustainability is also important to us. For example, we use resources responsibly and have been a carbon-neutral company since 2021. Currently, more than 180 food enthusiasts are working on our vision of making balanced nutrition easier.
