Biomanufacturing offers a sustainable alternative to petrochemical manufacturing by harnessing engineered microorganisms to convert renewable feedstocks into

diverse value-added products. Systems metabolic engineering has driven its advancement, enabling rational design of microbial strains with enhanced performance

and robustness. Despite these achievements, large-scale commercialisation remains limited, highlighting the persistent gap between laboratory success and industrial

deployment. We examine the challenges and opportunities in advancing biomanufacturing towards industrial implementation through two cases, succinic acid and

polyhydroxyalkanoates, that exemplify products nearing, yet not fully reaching, commercial maturity. Finally, we discuss how integrating artificial intelligence with

systems metabolic engineering can accelerate sustainable biomanufacturing.
