Food Production Manager

About Demolish Industries

We’re reinventing meat for a planet-positive future. Our Gen4 precision-structuring platform is the first in the world to recreate all perceptible components of meat. It recreates the muscle fibres, connective tissue and fat of whole-cut chicken entirely from plants. Backed by investors with deep manufacturing and food technology expertise, we’ve commissioned our pilot line in Bangalore and are scaling rapidly toward first commercial launches. Every kilogram of Demolish meat saves water, land and carbon while keeping animals out of the equation. If you’re excited to push the boundaries of engineering and scale solutions that matter, join us and help make food systems kinder, healthier and more sustainable.
