The First.
The Freshest.

Capella was born from a belief that this island deserves access to the freshest, cleanest, most delicious mushrooms possible. Not flown in from halfway around the world. Grown right here, with care.

We built our farm from the ground up, learning from the best growers in the world and adapting their techniques to our unique tropical climate. Every decision we make is driven by one goal: to put a better mushroom on your plate.

Today, we supply hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, and families across Mauritius - and we’re just getting started.

Our Commitment

Nourishing our
island, sustainably.

Mushroom farming is one of the most sustainable forms of agriculture on earth. We take that responsibility seriously - and then go further.

Zero Pesticides

We never use pesticides, fungicides, or synthetic chemicals. Our mushrooms grow in a clean, controlled environment - naturally.

Bio-Degradable

From substrate to packaging, we're working toward eliminating waste at every stage of production.

Renewed Soil

Our used mushroom compost is donated to local farmers and gardeners as nutrient-rich soil amendment. Nothing goes to landfill.
