Have you ever wondered what happens to the waste produced when making beer? Maybe you haven’t. Maybe you didn’t know that 650,000 kilos of spent grain are produced each day in Canada. That’s a LOT. Today we’re talking with Clinton Bishop, Co-founder and COO of Susgrainable. They using a circular economy business model and are turning this beer waste into baked goods. By processing the spent grain, they’re able to produce a flour that has tons of fibre and plant protein, way better that traditional flour. Their signature cookies even have up to 7 grams of fibre in a single cookie! We talk about circular economy, we talk about supply chain, we talk about how they are getting interest from people, and what some of the hurdles of this business model are.
