“A lot has changed in our world over the last year, but one thing has stayed the same: Singapore continues to lead the global transformation to a smarter, more sustainable food system,” said Josh Tetrick, co-founder and CEO of Eat Just in a press release. “We’re proud to celebrate our one-year anniversary of the first-ever sale of cultivated meat with this important regulatory and product announcement that’s again taking place in Singapore.”
Eat Just raised $370 million in 2021 and will use the funds to expand production and add staff.
In the US, Upside Foods has built a facility with 400,000 pounds of annual cultivated meat production capacity even though Singapore remains the only country to have approved cultivated meat for commercial sale and human consumption.
