Nobell Foods

Nobell Foods is a molecular-farming food-technology company founded by Magi Richani that produces animal-free cheese from plant-grown casein. The company engineered soybean plants to grow the same dairy caseins found in animal milk, working with independent Midwest farmers to raise the crop from seed to flower, then converting the plant-derived proteins into cheese that melts, stretches, and tastes like conventional dairy. Backed by DCVC, Y Combinator, Andreessen Horowitz, and investors including Bill Gates and Robert Downey Jr., Nobell raised a $75M Series B and has since rebranded to Alpine Bio, with Nobell Foods continuing as the animal-free cheese brand and product unit. It is a consumer-packaged-goods and biotech company with no public API or developer program; this profile was added to the API Evangelist network as a portfolio lead and enriched with verified public identity only.

Nobell Foods is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Food Technology, Molecular Farming, Plant-Based, and Animal-Free Cheese.
