Chicago, USA – July 17, 2025 — Angel Yeast North America successfully concluded our participation at the prestigious IFT Chicago 2025 (IFT FIRST Annual Event & Expo). This event served as a pivotal platform for us to showcase our cutting-edge yeast protein and yeast extract innovations. Under the themes “Yeast Extract – Enjoy a Flavorful Life” and “Redefining Future Proteins,” we impressed industry professionals with our sustainable and functional ingredient solutions developed to meet evolving consumer demands in flavor, nutrition, and wellness.
Leading the Way with Yeast Protein as a New Protein Solution
At the heart of our exhibition was our pioneering yeast protein AngeoPro, highlighted as a superior alternative addressing key challenges faced by traditional plant and whey proteins. Our yeast protein's distinct advantages, such as enhanced flavor profile, allergen-free nature, absence of dairy intolerance issues, and competitive pricing (unaffected by tariffs), resonated strongly with visitors. As the global food industry increasingly seeks sustainable, high-quality protein sources, our yeast protein offers a valuable solution—particularly contributing to functional nutrition and plant-based protein portfolios.
Furthermore, we emphasized the role of yeast protein in weight management nutrition. Amid rising popularity of GLP-1 therapies, concerns around side effects like muscle and collagen loss persist. Our natural, vegan yeast protein provides an effective means to supplement protein intake, supporting muscle maintenance and promoting holistic wellness without adverse effects.
Expanding Flavor and Functional Horizons with Yeast Extract and More
Complementing our yeast protein spotlight, we showcased our comprehensive yeast extract savory product range—a natural flavor enhancer enabling food manufacturers to create delicious, umami-rich products while reducing sodium content. This aligns with the growing consumer demand for healthier and tastier food formulations.
Additional highlights included our diverse baking solutions such as Natural Aroma Yeast Feravor'-Buttery, Bread Improver, and Bio-preservative Angel Fresh W30, alongside nutrition-focused ingredients like Nutritional Yeast Flakes, Vitamin K2 powders and oils, and fermentation nutrition innovations for beverages, including Non-Alcoholic Beer Yeast NAO5.
Strong Industry Engagement and Future Outlook
Throughout the event, we engaged extensively with global food industry professionals, exchanging insights and exploring collaborative opportunities. The enthusiastic response underscored our reputation as a global leader in yeast biotechnology and an innovator addressing market trends for sustainable, health-conscious ingredient solutions.
Building upon our robust research and development capabilities and global production footprint, we continue to drive innovation aimed at improving lives by harnessing microbial technologies. We invite industry partners and customers worldwide to explore our expanding portfolio of fermentation-based solutions that contribute to a healthier, more flavorful, and sustainable future.
