Sobanana is a Portuguese-Ukranian Start Up based in Madeira Island. It is an innovative food tech initiative that upcycles surplus bananas and banana byproducts through a fermentation-powered process. By transforming unsellable bananas into high-fiber, nutrient-rich functional foods, Sobanana addresses global challenges such as food waste, nutritional deficiencies, and environmental impact. Their circular economy model ensures that every part of the banana plant is utilized, reducing waste while creating sustainable, locally produced food solutions.
