Cultivating a
Greener Future
Through Insect Biotech.
Awtside re-engineers regional food supply circuits in West Africa. We upcycle organic food waste into high-protein animal nutrients and microbial fertilizers.
An Elegant Circuit
Valorizing Food Waste.
Our bioconversion facility harnesses the high-velocity metabolic pathways of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae. We convert nutrient-dense organic waste back into the food chain, eliminating landfill methane emissions.
Waste Sourcing
We source organic food waste from Nigeria's local markets and agricultural hubs, rescuing it from landfills.

From Organic Waste
to Premium Nutrient
Take a visual look at the transformation circuit. Sourced local food waste is converted into clean, high-grade protein feed meal and active soil fertilizer.
Sourced InputOrganic Feedstock
Rescued market organic wastes, sorting agricultural residue and vegetation mass to serve as the feed source for our bioconversion vectors.
BioconversionBSF Metabolism
Voracious Black Soldier Fly larvae ingest the feedstock, absorbing micro-nutrients and bio-synthesizing key protein chains.
Milled OutputProcessed Protein Feed
Harvested larvae are dried and milled into protein feed, providing feed manufacturers a direct, stable replacement to imported fishmeal.
Addressing Africa's
Agri-Feed Critical Chain
Imported feed costs put massive weight on local farmers. We offer direct replacements produced entirely within the bioconversion system in Lagos State.
Feed Cost Load
Feed accounts for ~60–70% of total variable poultry production costs in Nigeria, pushed higher by currency devaluation and subsidy removal.
Nigerian poultry economics research, 2024
Food Losses
An estimated 40–50% of perishable produce in Nigeria is lost between farm and market due to storage and logistics gaps.
The Guardian Nigeria / FAO estimates
Poultry Share
Poultry feed represents ~80% of Nigeria's total commercial feed production — the dominant driver of national feed demand.

Zero-Waste Design
Our bioconversion process is engineered to divert all processed feedstock from landfill, cutting methane emissions from decomposing organic waste.

Organic Feedstock
& Soil Biotics
Leveraging native biological larvae pathways to formulate premium alternative inputs for livestock feed mills and agro-ecological soils.
Fresh BSF Larvae
Live, high-protein Black Soldier Fly larvae harvested under strict biosecurity standards. Ideal for direct poultry feeding, aquaculture starters, and local smallholders looking for a cost-effective nutrient boost.
Dried BSF Meal
Dehydrated and milled insect protein meal. Features a balanced amino acid profile and high digestibility, serving as a direct commercial alternative to imported fishmeal and soybean meal in animal feed mills.
Organic Fertilizer (Frass)
A nutrient-rich organic soil conditioner produced by larvae digestion. Restores essential soil microbes, enhances moisture retention, and supports organic crop farming across local agro-ecological zones.
Circular Consulting
B2B waste valorization advisory, carbon credit commercialization strategies, and native crop value-chain creation (including Nigeria's highly resilient Bambara groundnut).
