meati™ Nets $450M to Revolutionize Sustainable, Nutrient-Dense Foods

Meati™, the innovative Boulder-based company founded in 2017, is excited to announce a monumental funding milestone, having raised $450,000,000 to accelerate its mission to revolutionize the way we experience food. At its core, Meati believes that good food should be good for the planet, and its pioneering use of mycelium – one of the most nutrient-dense superfoods on the planet – is changing the culinary landscape worldwide. This remarkable infusion of capital is set to supercharge the development, production, and distribution of Meati’s signature cutlets and steaks, which are composed of 95% mycelium and crafted through a natural fermentation process that eliminates chemicals, preservatives, pesticides, and antibiotics. Renowned for being high in protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals while being low in carbohydrates, fats, and cholesterol, Meati products have already won over meat eaters, vegetarians, and vegans alike with their delicious taste and sustainable promise. With its presence in 7,000 stores nationwide, including major retailers like Kroger, Albertsons, Safeway, Whole Foods Market, and Super Target, this new funding boost positions Meati to broaden its retail footprint, enhance product innovation, and expand marketing initiatives to reach even more conscious consumers. The raised funds will also play a critical role in scaling manufacturing operations and supporting research and development into new sustainable food technologies. As Meati continues to champion healthful, plant-forward, and environmentally friendly food solutions, this venture capital injection reaffirms the company's commitment to transforming kitchen tables around the globe, paving the way for a future where every meal not only nourishes the consumer but also sustains our natural world.
