Shandi Global is a Singapore-based food-tech company focused on protein innovation and addressing the global protein gap.

Founded in 2019 by Dr. Reena Sharma and Dr. Gaurav Sharma, the company develops clean, sustainable, and affordable plant-based meat alternatives using a patented process that incorporates natural, non-GMO ingredients like pea protein, chickpeas, and quinoa. Shandi Global specializes in plant-based chicken and functional meat ingredients, offering products that match the taste, texture, and nutritional value of animal-based options. Their flagship product is plant-based chicken, which contains nearly 30% protein. The company also features various product formats, including patties, strips, and chunks, under brand lines such as FOREVER and Canatein. Operating primarily on a B2B model, Shandi supplies schools, hospitals, and restaurants across multiple countries, while also expanding into retail markets in Singapore, Australia, India, Thailand, and Canada. The company is committed to sustainability, significantly reducing land use and greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional animal farming.
