WhatIF Foods, since its inception, has strongly advocated for regenerative business and agricultural practices in order to achieve optimum help to restore the planet. As a brand, they’ve gone beyond the realm of merely focusing on sustainability, but are actually making strides in healing the planet through their business.

Through the use of the revolutionary Bambara Groundnut, a hardy legume that’s able to grow in arid lands, with the ability to restore soil health, WhatIF Foods has essentially crafted a business model that consistently helps the earth’s lands recover and become healthier.

Beyond their business, its founder, Christoph Langwallner, has extensively shared the importance of regenerative practices to a global community. WhatIF Foods has actively participated in green business symposiums such as the 2022 Planetiers World Gathering where they shared insights with the brightest minds in sustainable and earth-friendly business about the various ways they, as businesses can improve the planet.

As such, their good deeds have not come unrecognized. Real Leaders has named WhatIF Foods as a 2023 Real Leaders Impact Awards Winner for the extensive work they’ve done to innovate how businesses run to improve the world and its communities. As a result, WhatIF Foods will now become part of a unified community of visionary leaders who, like them, actively contribute to innovation towards a sustainable future. With the theme of Waves of Impact, WhatIF Foods, Real Leaders believes, is a brand that's going to make a big splash in 2023.
