The company Bia Farraige Arann (which name means Food from the Sea) was formed in 2017 by the Inis Mór Development Co-operative (Comharchumann Forbartha Arann), with the aim to create new qualified jobs on the Island, to potentially attract young graduated islanders back home. At the same time, any profits will go into further Community projects. Harvesting big amounts of seaweed would not be sustainable on a small island, therefore, Bia Farraige formulated a few added-value innovative products, with Seaweed as a key ingredient, but ready to use, tested and safe. The core of our production is an IP pending technology able to extract the goodness out of our freshly harvested seaweed and transform it into Ingredients for Food, Drink and Cosmetic use. Our process doesn't involve heat or chemicals, it is sustainable, effective and innovative. With our extracts we produce: SALANN, Salt replacement to spray on food (Seaweed extract in Seawater) OLA, savory condiment (Seaweed and Vegetable extract in Extra Virgin Olive Oil SU ARANN, types: Red, Blue, Violet (Seaweed extract in concentrated fresh fruits Juice) SNACKS with Carragheen Moss and ARANESSENCE, an innovative Seaweed Skincare line exclusively made here on Inis Mor, the Aran Islands! We supply our seaweed preparations also in bulk or packaged with customers' labels. Being a small company, we live a challenging venture in a world where Big Multinationals own the markets. Well, still we have a dream: Grow bigger and bigger to share our profits and improve the lives of our Community! Any links or suggestions from other Community-Based Companies are welcome! Our small Community needs our support and support us!
