We founded Kipster to find a way to feed the world in fair way, with respect for all living beings, and without passing costs on to future generations. We combine a clear, compelling values-driven approach with pragmatism. 

What we stand for 

There's room for only a few farm animals

Farm animals should contribute to a sustainable and healthy food system and environment, instead of being a burden.  
Humans must respect the emotions and instincts of farm animals by giving them the best life thinkable. 
Competition for food between humans and farm animals is out of the question. If you can grow crops for food, don't grow crops for feed. 
Plant-based alternatives are preferred over animal-based food.

People are treated with respect 

Farmers receive a fair price and have good working conditions.
Consumers need to know how food is produced.  We don’t sweep anything under the rug.
People (within the value chain) are treated fairly and correctly.

Our promises  

1. Tackling food-waste 

One third of food produced globally is either lost or wasted. We up-cycle food waste into eggs and meat. Over 70% of the world’s agricultural land is used for livestock feed. We decided to bypass using agricultural land as much as possible.  

2. Carbon Neutral 

Livestock are responsible for 15% of global greenhouse gases. The CO2 footprint of Kipster feed is 50% less than standard chicken feed. Our eggs are certified carbon neutral.  

3. Better Animal Welfare 

Chickens are beings with desires and feelings. Our farms are designed around their instincts and needs and we raise roosters for meat. (Worldwide, around 7-billion-day-old male chicks are culled each year in the egg industry.)
