Headquartered outside of Toronto, truLOCAL was founded in 2016 as a monthly subscription platform for meat and food delivery that’s uniquely tied to independent local farms, butchers, and clean-meat processors. At its core, it’s a platform for a business like an organic farm or a neighborhood butcher shop to go Direct to Consumer (D2C)—something increasingly valuable when the pandemic has consumers nervous about stepping inside a supermarket.

A new varnish for food and beverage packaging materials, SafetoShare, offers brands and packagers a biocide-free method for combatting pathogens, thus boosting food safety and protecting consumers from foodborne illnesses.

Australia-based Twelve8 Technology (PaktoEarth) developed SafetoShare, which is a clear varnish that can be printed on paper, polypropylene, and polyethylene. Nanotechnology enables the varnish to fill in microscopic irregularities in the substrate’s surface.
