FORMER Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini posed outside his new factory as he prepares to try and help the environment through his business ventures.
The ex-Gunner has gone from pro footballer to environmental entrepreneur.
And it has been reported that his company could make BILLIONS, with an estimated net worth of £21billion.
He is a co-founder of GF Biochemicals, the first company in the world able to mass-produce levulinic acid.
It is a fuel made from plant waste that can be used in the creation of plastics.
"We founded GFBiochemicals with the ambition of finding sustainable alternatives to oil-based products," he revealed.

Alongside the photos, he added the caption: "Different field, but same passion to drive change by doing things better. 🌿👷🏽."
As a player, Flamini spent seven years at Arsenal across two spells with the club.
