BusinessPhoto: NDTV BusinessEntrepreneur Turns Food Waste Into Fashionable Leather
Entrepreneur Pritesh Mistry's company, The Bio Company, transforms unsellable tomatoes into plant-based leather alternatives used for bags, shoes, and fashion accessories. Originating as a college project in Mumbai, the business addresses environmental issues linked to conventional leather production and agricultural waste. Inspired by polluting leather tanneries in Kanpur, Mistry developed a leather-like material called Bioleather from tomato by-products.
