Beyond Meat Opens New State-of-the-Art Innovation Center
Los Angeles facility will be dedicated to expanding research footprint and fueling progress toward building “meat” from plants
Working to unlock the Future of Protein™, plant-based meat category leader Beyond Meat opened the doors of its new 26,000 square foot research and development center at the company’s headquarters. The new facility, which houses nearly 100 employees, is the new home to Beyond Meat’s Manhattan Beach Project, which is designed to bring together the world’s best scientists, engineers, food technologists, chefs and managers in service of a single goal: perfectly build meat directly from plants.
Seven-times the size of its existing facility, the Innovation Center supports the company’s Rapid & Relentless Innovation initiative, the goal of which is to continuously iterate the company’s products until they are indistinguishable from their animal protein equivalent.
