De Insectenman
De Insectenman is a Dutch company focused on edible insects and insect-based food experiences. It presents insects as a sustainable, nutritious alternative source of animal protein and offers products and services for consumers, businesses, events, and schools. The company combines a webshop with catering-style tasting concepts, educational presentations, and custom gift packages. It also highlights Beetles Beer, an insect beer made in Oudenaarde, Belgium, as part of its broader offering for trade and hospitality customers. Core Values Sustainability : The company strongly emphasizes insects as a low-impact protein source that uses less food, water, land, and space, while helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions and food waste. Nutrition : Insects are positioned as highly nutritious, with high protein content and a range of vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, and amino acids. Surprise and experience : De Insectenman aims to make insect consumption approachable through tasting experiences, presentations, and products that are meant to surprise and engage people. Customization : The company stresses tailor-made solutions for events and business gifting, adapting its offerings to the occasion, budget, and audience. Unique Aspects Combined food, education, and event concept : De Insectenman does more than sell products; it also delivers tastings, presentations, and school lessons to help people experience insect food in a guided way. Broad insect-based assortment : Its offering spans whole insects, insect flour, prepared snacks, event catering items, and gift packages, giving it a wider consumer and B2B format mix than a simple webshop. Beetles Beer connection : The company features Beetles Beer, an insect beer brewed in Oudenaarde, Belgium, and positions it for wholesale, horeca, and liquor retail customers. Focus on practical adoption : The website repeatedly frames insect flour and prepared snacks as ways to make insect consumption easier for people who may not want to eat whole insects.
