Renewal Mill is a small Oakland-based company in the food and beverage services sector that upcycles byproducts from food manufacturing into ingredients and plant-based products, contributing to a circular-food economy. Its flagship product is organic okara, a gluten-free flour derived from soybean pulp left over from soy milk production, noted for its fiber and protein content. The company's portfolio extends to other upcycled ingredients and baking products sourced from byproducts such as oat pulp, potato peels, grape pomace, almond meal, and more. Founded in 2016 and woman-owned, Renewal Mill operates with a compact team focused on expanding the use of waste streams in food production. The company aims to provide sustainable, value-added ingredients to the broader food industry. Renewal Mill sits within the upcycled-food movement and has earned notable recognition for its work, including a World Changing Idea award from Fast Company and the Institute of Food Technologists' Future Food Disruptor of the Year designation. A recent development in its product line was the 2023 launch of a 100% upcycled total flour replacement, illustrating progress in diversifying its ingredient offerings. Based in Oakland, California, the company targets ingredient brands and baking applications seeking sustainable, waste-reducing solutions.
