Eat Just subsidiary Good Meat, which produces cultured meat from animal cells instead of slaughtered livestock, announced recently that it has secured a $170M ($S226M) funding to ramp up its ‘meat’ production.
The news comes on the heels of another historic moment in the F&B landscape. Cantonese restaurant Madame Fan at JW Marriott Hotel Singapore South Beach has partnered with Good Meat to become the first establishment in the world to use cultured meat instead of conventional meat during set times.
“As part of a global organisation aimed to cut food wastage, partnering with a purposeful company such as Good Meat was the perfect collaboration to support our ‘Source Responsibly’ efforts while we continue to deliver exceptional culinary experiences,” enthused Marco Pedrelli, the hotel’s director of food & beverage.
