IT ALL STARTED WITH ONE PERSON

VICTORIA DOLGIKH—

  • Neurobiologist, PhD in Biological Sciences
  • Candidate for a PhD in Technical Sciences
  • Graduate of Lomonosov Moscow State University, Institute of Higher Nervous Activity and Neurophysiology of the Russian Academy of Sciences (postgraduate studies)
  • Patent holder
  • Finalist of the All-Russian Youth Projects Competition “Growth Priorities” 2019

“As the daughter of doctors, I always knew that nutrition plays a key role in shaping health. Bread, as a complex multi-component product, can both strengthen and worsen health. Avoiding bread risks creating a deficiency in B vitamins, dietary fiber, and other valuable micronutrients. It’s a vicious cycle. The saying ‘bread is the staff of life’ echoed in my mind, giving me no peace. As a simple consumer, realizing the problems in the baking industry, I understood that I had to create functional bread with enhanced nutritional value, safe and nutritious. If not me, then who?”

OUR JOURNEY AND COLLABORATION

The work of an entire team began with the idea of one woman, a mother of two children.

For three years, we developed the line of “protein-spelt breads,” evolving from a home kitchen to the Research Institute (RI) of the Baking Industry.

On May 30, 2019, we completed the commissioning work.

On June 25, we made our first delivery to a retail network in Moscow.

Today, the company “VQ FORMULA” has established itself as a responsible and reliable supplier. Our products are now available in more than half of the retail chains, online markets, and cafeterias.

The product range has expanded, and new developments are underway.
