Juto Bio

Creating Next-Generation Microalgal Biostimulants using Whisky Waste

The Challenge

Farmers cannot keep up with the rising costs of fertiliser – prices have 2x’d in the last year (25-26′).

The Opportunity

Juto Bio offers a sustainable solution to farmers through novel biostimulants that increase crop yields and lower fertiliser dependency.

The Venture

Business Model

We sell raw material B2B to formulators who sell our product directly to their established network of farmers.

Competition

Our competitors are seaweed extract based biostimulants. These require high CAPEX to harvest, are unsustainble/marine damaging, unscalable and thus, expensive. Our solution circumvents these by using whisky waste as input (no cost, circular economy model, highly precise + scalable).

Traction

Currently validating POC at the advanced hackspace. On 2 tech accelerators in Scotland and London. Partnering with 4 distilleries on West coast of Scotland. Raised £8,500 equity free funding
