Investing in the Future of Foods
Nicoya is a future foods investor – investing at the frontier of food innovation. We partner with ambitious entrepreneurs transforming how food is produced and consumed — building healthier, smarter, and more resilient food businesses with long-term value creation at their core.
A Food System in Transformation
The global food system is under growing pressure. Rising health challenges, climatestress, and fragile supply chains are exposing the limits of legacy food production — while creating unprecedented opportunity.
As consumer demand for healthier foods accelerates, technology reshapes production economics, and food security becomes a strategic priority, the convergence of these forces is driving a structural shift in where value is created in food. This is a decisive moment for long-term capital to back system-level change.
Our Investment Thesis
Nicoya invests at the intersection of health, innovation, and food system transformation — where consumer demand and production capabilities converge to reshape how value is created in food.
By investing across both demand and supply, Nicoya captures compounding value from the full transformation of the food system.
