The world’s largest meat processor, Tyson Foods, is investing in the rising market for alternatives. Known for marketing chicken, beef and pork, Tyson has recently taken a 5% stake in the plant-based protein producer Beyond Meat.
Beyond Meat manipulates amino acids, fats, carbohydrates and minerals from soy and pea proteins to recreate meat proteins, specialising in ‘vegan’ ground beef, chicken and tuna.
