About PeelPioneers

PeelPioneers is a Dutch scale-up company specializing in the sustainable processing of orange peels. Operating in the food and agribusiness sector, PeelPioneers serves clients such as supermarkets, restaurants, and hotels that offer freshly squeezed orange juice. These establishments generate significant amounts of orange peel waste, which PeelPioneers effectively transforms into valuable secondary raw materials. The company has built Europe's largest peel processing factory in Den Bosch, the Netherlands, with a capacity to process 120,000 kilos of peels per day. Supported by a consortium of investors, PeelPioneers aims to expand its operations across Europe, providing a circular solution to the growing problem of peel waste. The business model revolves around collecting peel waste from clients, processing it into useful products, and selling these products back to the market. This not only helps in waste management but also creates a revenue stream from the sale of processed materials. PeelPioneers is committed to sustainability and circular economy principles, making it a key player in the European bioeconomy landscape.
