about us
Founded in 2023 by Helmi Abed, a young entrepreneur, Nutri Protein is a startup specializing in raising insects for biological control and sustainable animal feed. Located in the Manouba region, our pilot farm houses colonies of beneficial insects such as ladybugs or lacewings, used to combat pests in organic market gardening crops. We also provide insects specifically bred for animal feed, such as BSF and crickets. By leveraging the tremendous potential of insects, Nutri Protein offers ecological and economical solutions to farmers concerned with protecting their crops and providing quality feed for their livestock. Our dynamic team daily takes on the many challenges involved in these innovative productions. Join the adventure alongside Nutri Protein and become players in the bioeconomy of tomorrow!
