About Reduced

Reduced is a food production company based in Copenhagen.

We reduce food waste and replace it with taste.

Using IP and recipes to create deep and intense flavour from upcycled produce, we sell our products under the Reduced brand via retail, D2C and the food service industry.

We have created a unique process of making flavour enhancers based on upcycled ingredients and have just finalized a production facility for the creation of organic fermented products on an industrial scale in Copenhagen.

Our pilot products had great traction in Denmark, and we are now ready to launch into European export markets.

We believe the future of foods depends on two things: sustainable sourcing & creating great tastes.
