Founded in Sweden in 2018, Sproud is on a mission to transform the food system with delicious, nutritious plant-based products with the lowest climate footprint in the industry. Made from yellow split peas—a low-impact, high-protein crop requiring little water, land and energy—Sproud is the alternative to the alternatives. Enjoy Sproud products in coffee, tea, smoothies, cooking, or simply on their own. The range includes Barista, Barista Zero, Unsweetened, Vanilla, on-the-go Iced Coffees and Cooking/Whipping Cream. The company integrates environmental responsibility, social impact, and ethical governance into every part of its operations—investing in its people and community while shaping a sustainable, regenerative and fair food system. With already low-emission plant-based ingredients, Sproud works to cut its impact across manufacturing, transport and packaging, and monitors its product carbon footprint using a third-party calculator. It became the first food company to verify its sustainability declaration through ISO 26000, reflecting its commitment to transparency, accountability and ethical practices. And now, B-Corp status adds to their mission to use business as a force for good.
