Marc Wandler, Co-founder and CEO of Susgrainable, is an expert in the emerging circular economy and has led his business from inception to securing an offer on CBC Dragons’ Den. Marc’s journey as a founder began with a simple class project at UBC, where he was pursuing his MBA. This project turned into Susgrainable in 2018, a company that now upcycles spent grains from craft brewers to create nutritious, delicious, easy to make barley flour, baking mixes, and baked goods. Realizing the problem breweries have with disposing their spent grain byproduct and the nutritious byproduct being exactly what Canadians needed more of in their diets, Susgrainable was created to tackle two big problems with one simple solution. Today, Susgrainable is participating in the fight against low fibre diets and food waste with the creation of its shelf stable Upcycled Barley Flour, rich in fibre and protein. Some would call them beer’s healthier half.
