About me

My name is Ahmer Ashraf, and I am a co-founder of SavFood. I have over 15 years of experience on working for large scale pharmaceutical companies, where I supported various portfolios including health and nutrition. In the nutrition field, I have worked on supporting food supplements targeting and development as well as working on bringing new, and innovative concepts to the market.

I am passionate about circular economy, and sustainability and we have dedicated the last 5 years in developing innovative, new products from potato peels waste. Our products are tested with some of the largest names in the potato, food processing, and ingredients industry.

I have studied social sciences from the LSE at the University of London, and have done several programmes in the field of food, health, and nutrition.
