Above Food Ingredients Inc. Common Stock
Company Overview
History and Background
Above Food Ingredients Inc. went public via SPAC acquisition on July 1, 2022, and delisted on November 20, 2023. It aimed to become a vertically integrated plant-based food company focusing on ingredients and consumer products.
Core Business Areas
- Ingredients: Focuses on developing and supplying plant-based ingredients, including plant protein concentrates, isolates, and flours from pulses and grains. This includes sourcing, processing, and selling these ingredients to other food manufacturers.
- Consumer Products: Develops and markets plant-based consumer packaged goods (CPG) like plant-based meats, dairy alternatives, and bakery items under its own brands. This segment included product development, manufacturing, marketing, and sales.
Leadership and Structure
Information on leadership and structure is limited due to the company's recent delisting. The CEO, Lionel Kambeitz, held the role during its active trading period. The company structure consisted of functional departments like R&D, Manufacturing, Sales & Marketing, and Finance. Board Members were listed during the active period.

Industry Overview
The plant-based food industry experienced significant growth followed by a slowdown due to factors like inflation and changing consumer preferences. The industry is competitive, with established players and emerging startups.
Positioning
Above Food positioned itself as a vertically integrated player, controlling the entire value chain from ingredient sourcing to consumer products. However, its actual competitive advantage was limited due to financial constraints and increased competition.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
Estimates for the plant-based food market vary widely. Some projected over $162 billion by 2030. Above Food's positioning aimed to capture a portion of this market, but its limited scale and financial resources hindered its ability to effectively compete within that TAM.
