I feel like it was yesterday that I sat down to write the previous New Year’s letter. Yet when I look at what Mana has achieved since then, it’s hard to believe that it’s only been a year. This just proves that time flies when you’re working hard and having fun, especially when you’re part of an awesome team like we have. 2019 was a big year for us because, among other things, we opened our second international branch in the USA (the first is located in Germany). This was a huge milestone. As you may already know, U.S. laws and food standards are much different than those in Europe, so getting our product into your country was no walk...

We’ve been keeping a big secret for the last 3 years. But now it’s time to let the cat out of the bag. Introducing the world’s first nutritionally complete plant burger: the ManaBurger™. A complete alternative to meat, the Mana Burger (130 g) provides 20 g of high-quality protein from peas, rice, hemp, mung beans, and algae. It is also high in fiber (4.2 g), rich in omega-3 DHA and EPA fatty acids, and delivers a primarily unsaturated, 22-g mix of 5 different oils: algae oil, coconut oil, flaxseed oil, sunflower oil, and canola oil. Sugar content is very low. One burger with no bun contains only 4 g of complex carbs. Our food scientists have packed 14 vitamins and...

Established in 2014 by young visionary Jakub Krejcik, Mana was Europe’s first complete-nutrition food. Krejcik founded the company out of his garage in 2014 with little startup capital and no assistance from investors. His intention was not just to engineer a peak-nutrition powder, but an economical, environmentally-friendly product that would accelerate the sustainable food movement. “What a true honor. We were the first producer of complete-nutrition powders in the European Union, and we now have the opportunity to share our tradition with the USA. Our vision has always been to produce an all-in-one product backed by science for sustainable living, and this will take us one step closer," says Krejcik. $2 per Meal Mana is a powder that mixes with water...

Can you imagine riding a bike 300 miles per day for nearly 11 days? For athlete and Mana ambassador Daniel Polman the answer is a resounding "Yes!"  The world's toughest cycling ultramarathon, Race Across America (RAAM), requires cyclists to ride over 3,000 miles from the West to East Coast of the U.S. Participants must cross 3 brutally hot deserts, 10,000-ft mountain passes, and the Great Plains, regardless of weather conditions.  Daniel, a devoted cyclist from the Czech Republic, finished the tireless dash in 7th place. 3,087.5 miles, 10 days, 19 hours, 47 minutes.  "It was an absolutely crazy test of energy. I burned up to 10,000 calories per day, which is a ton of food. I didn't eat that much, but...

Big news! We are entering the U.S. market and are now taking pre-orders through our e-shop, drinkmana.com. In Europe, Mana is already a synonym for quick, healthy, plant-based meals, and is sold both online and at over 1,000 supermarkets and retail points.

Krejcik founded the company out of his garage in 2014 with little startup capital and no assistance from investors. His intention was not just to engineer a peak-nutrition powder, but an economical, environmentally-friendly product that would accelerate the sustainable food movement. In recent years, Mana has triggered a paradigm shift in the way people think about eating. “We were the first producer of complete-nutrition...
