Is This the Future of Sustainable Food Packaging?

In this episode, we speak with Ved Krishna, the visionary behind Pakka, a company creating compostable food packaging from sugarcane waste — and aiming to scale regenerative packaging across the food industry.

With deep roots in India and global ambitions, Ved shares how Pakka is building local supply chains, designing for true end-of-use, and why they’ve chosen to stay laser-focused on just one thing: food packaging.

What we explore:

  • What regenerative packaging means in practice

  • Why scalability and pricing still challenge bio-based solutions

  • How values, design, and market pressure intersect in packaging

A refreshing, candid, and at times radical take on what it really takes to change the system — and why it’s worth doing.
