LDGFood – From Swedish Automated Farms to Your Table
A subsidiary of LDG Group AB (Sweden), building a farm-to-table culinary ecosystem with fresh, clean, and safe ingredients—most of which are grown and harvested right here in Sweden.
What is LDGFood?
LDGFood focuses on two pillars:
- Restaurant system offering a diverse, Asia–Europe fusion menu.
- Automated agriculture in Sweden to secure fresh inputs, standardize quality, and supply the entire LDGFood restaurant network.
Goal & Mission
To create a rich dining experience in which the majority of ingredients are produced in Sweden, ensuring top-tier quality, freshness, and safety.
Today’s F&B Pain Points
Fluctuating quality and prices of raw ingredients.
Limited, non-transparent traceability.
Post-harvest losses and suboptimal cold chains.
Rapidly rising demand for nutrition and healthy eating.
LDGFood’s answer:
a closed-loop, end-to-end farm-to-table model with in-house produce and optimized operations.
LDGFood’s Solutions
- Automated farms (greenhouse/hydroponics/aeroponics): environmental sensors; automated irrigation, nutrients, and lighting; yield optimization for Sweden’s seasons.
- Short cold chain: harvest → pre-processing → refrigerated transport → kitchen, compressing “farm-to-table” time.
- Seasonal menus: rotating ingredients to preserve freshness and natural flavors.
- Transparent traceability: QR codes for every batch with sowing, care, and harvest dates.
- Digital operations: demand forecasting; data-driven planning for planting, harvesting, and inventory.
