Beyond Meat hints at poultry substitute in 2020
Beyond Meat's CEO Ethan Brown hinted at giving more focus to the companies plant-based 'poultry' in the coming year of 2020.“You’ll see some exciting things from us in the poultry space in 2020,” Brown said in an interview with Bloomberg TV Monday about his inclusion on this year’s Bloomberg 50 list. “I can’t name specific partners or developments.”
Beyond Meat's other plant-based protein products are already available in stores across the world in more than 58,000 locations.
Brown noted that while the company had sold a "poultry" product at one time, it no longer does but is working on a "whole muscle breast tissue."
