About Magalarva
Founded in 2017 by Rendria Labde (founder) and Arunee Sarasetsiri (co-founder), Magalarva is an Indonesian black soldier fly company with a mission to reintegrate food waste into the food system through bio-conversion processes carried out by Black Soldier Fly (BSF) Larvae.
These bio-conversion processes convert food waste into a high-protein body mass of BSF larvae, which we then process further into BSF products such as dried BSF larvae, BSF meal, BSF oil, koi food, shrimp supplement, and organic fertilizer.
The BSF solution effectively tackles two problems simultaneously, offering a dual benefit to waste management and sustainable agriculture. Until today, Magalarva has successfully eliminated over 4 thousand tons of food waste and exported our products to four countries worldwide.
