dbo:abstract
  • Nima is a portable food sensor designed to enable individuals with food allergies and sensitivities to test their food for specific proteins. Nima created and leads the category of consumer food testers. The first product, a gluten sensor, was released in for general availability in February 2017. The second product, a peanut sensor, was released for general availability in September 2018. Nima caters to the millions of people who have food sensitivities and food allergies, and require additional data before making a decision at mealtime. The company's mission is to enable people to be their healthiest selves by giving them the power to know what is in their food. The founders of Nima met at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and have severe food sensitivities and family members with extreme food allergies. They were personally motivated to find a solution to help improve the chances of staying healthy and social when eating outside of the home for themselves, their families and the millions of people who are actively avoiding certain foods to stay healthy. Nima was born out of MIT in 2013. Nima was acquired by Medline Industries in 2020. Whether by decision or Covid19 impact, testing capsules for the testing units were immediately unavailable for purchase on Amazon after the acquisition announcement; however, became available a few months after the acquisition. Medline spun out Nima and re-branded the company to Nima Partners. The gluten products are still available for purchase on the Nima Partners website. (en)
