Aspire Food Group Seeks to Cure Global Hunger One Cricket at a Time
Posted by Barney Beal, Content Director
Aspire Food Group’s beginnings are as original as its product. A social enterprise that raises insects for human consumption began as an entry in the Hult prize competition, which challenges college students to solve some of the world’s greatest problems.
Five students from McGill University bested 10,000 other entries in the 2013 contest seeking to solve the global hunger problem. The goal: commercializing the tradition of eating protein-rich insects, which require far less resources than protein sources like beef or chicken. The practice has its roots in cultures around the world. With seed money from the prize, the students formed Aspire Food Group and quickly set up operations in the US and Ghana.
