SeniorDeliについてAbout SeniorDeli

嚥下障害をお持ちの方の食の喜びと尊厳を取り戻すために。

設立背景

SeniorDeliは、高齢者が直面する食事の困難に深く向き合うところから生まれました。創業チームはケンブリッジ大学ideaSpaceおよびインペリアルカレッジ・ロンドンでの研究をスタートし、その後香港大学iDendronでのインキュベーションを経て、香港科学技術園区(HKSTP)に入居。10年以上にわたるR&Dの成果として、アジアの食文化に根ざした介護食品ラインを開発しました。

西洋のアプローチとは異なり、SeniorDeliのコア技術は食材本来の見た目・風味・栄養素を保ちながら安全な食形態を実現します。嚥下障害のある方が、本物の食事を見て・嗅いで・味わうことができます。

現在、SeniorDeliは大湾区の200施設以上の介護施設・病院(2026年第2四半期時点)にサービスを提供しています。認定社会企業として、香港地区の流通は米国Getz Brosが担当しています。
