Plant-Based Food Companies Spell Doom for Meat Industry
FN Media Group Presents Microsmallcap.com Market Commentary
NEW YORK, July 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- As the meat industry falls out of favor with consumers, plant-based food choices are becoming more and more popular. World-famous billionaire investor and long-time cultured meat advocate Jim Mellon recently stated that over half the global meat supply would be replaced by cultured/plant-based meat within the next decade. According to Mellon, the meat-produced origins of COVID-19 may act as a catalyst for change in the entire food industry. "We need to do something about our food supply. We need to make it cleaner; we need to make it less environmentally damaging; and we need to remove antibiotics and hormones from the food supply," Mellon said. Companies like The Very Good Food Company (TSXV:VERY) (OTCQB:VRYYF), Tattooed Chef (NASDAQ:TTCF), Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc. (NASDAQ:SFM), Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:BYND), and Else Nutrition Holdings Inc. (TSXV:BABY) (OTCQX:BABYF) are delivering the kind of plant-based, natural solutions the market is demanding at just the right moment.
Else Nutrition Holdings Inc. (TSXV:BABY) (OTCQX:BABYF) is a cutting-edge Israeli plant-based children's nutrition company that has been at the forefront of plant-based and dairy-free products. It believes in using non-soy, clean ingredients for kids for all their products. As it expands its market presence, Else Nutrition's profit margins have also shown signs of growth. In the first quarter of 2021, Else Nutrition's revenue growth increased by over 90%, and increased amazon orders by 66%. As their product portfolio increases, these numbers are also projected to as well.
Else Nutrition recently expanded its offerings through the launch of its new line of plant-based nutrient-dense baby Super Cereals for infants aged 6 months and up. The new product launch comes on the heels of the release of its original Plant-Powered Complete Nutrition for Toddlers, and the Plant-Powered Complete Nutrition Shakes for Kids, which entered the market in June 2021.
"This marks a key milestone for the company as we continue on our goal towards offering a full range of clean label, plant-based nutrition for infants, toddlers and young children," said Hamutal Yitzhak, CEO and Co-Founder of Else Nutrition Holdings Inc. (TSXV:BABY) (OTCQX:BABYF). "These clean label, nutrient dense baby Super Cereals greatly expand our offering and create a beachhead into the extensive and growing infant nutrition market."
Else Nutrition has also continued to expand its research and development efforts to further validate its products. In July, the company announced an upcoming clinical study to establish the scientific basis for the safety and tolerance of Else Nutrition products. The study, which will be led by Prof. David Fleicher and Prof. Carina Venter from the Children's Hospital Colorado and University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine, will follow healthy toddlers for 4 months, comparing growth and wellness versus those consuming a commercial cow milk-based toddler product.
In the past few months, Else Nutrition Holdings Inc. (TSXV:BABY) (OTCQX:BABYF) signed a deal with Rouses markets to expand to 65 different retailers and distributors across the Southern United States. Additionally, in June 2020 Else Nutrition made an agreement with Huckleberry Natural Market to distribute their baby food cereals and shakes at 16 different locations, opening the company's distribution capabilities across the Pacific Northwest.
