Rainfed Foods

Rainfed Foods is an innovative plant-based food company that has developed the world's first millet-based milk. Founded by Sujala Balaji, a former dairy scientist with a Food Engineering degree from India and Master's in Biosystems Engineering from the University of Manitoba, the company creates premium plant-based beverages using climate-resilient millet as their hero ingredient. Their flagship product, Rainfed M!lk, delivers 8 grams of complete protein and the same amount of calcium as traditional cow's milk while being free of all common allergens including dairy, nuts, soy, and gluten. The product was designed in collaboration with an ex-Michelin-starred chef using proprietary processing technology that enhances nutrient bioavailability without compromising taste or quality. Rainfed Foods serves health-conscious consumers, families with dietary restrictions, and environmentally aware customers seeking sustainable alternatives to dairy. The company focuses on the consumer packaged goods industry, specifically the plant-based beverage sector, targeting retail grocery chains, specialty health food stores, coffee shops, and foodservice establishments. Their millet-based approach supports sustainable agriculture by using crops that require minimal water, support smallholder farmers, restore biodiversity, and regenerate soil health. The versatile milk product can be used in coffee, cereal, baking, cooking, smoothies, or consumed directly, making it suitable for various culinary applications and consumer preferences.
