With 19g of protein per 90g filet, SWAP Chicken contains no GMOs, added gluten, or cholesterol. Its thick filets cook evenly every time and can be marinated, breaded, sliced, or cubed, and are delicious served warm or cold. SWAP Chicken simplifies kitchen operations and reduces food safety risk. It also provides stable pricing, in contrast to the fluctuations typically seen in commodity poultry markets.

SWAP's 'Umisation' protein platform employs a technique to transform plant proteins into structured fibers without high heat or pressure. This novel approach uses just 8 familiar ingredients and no artificial flavors, colorants, or texturizers.

A growing community of conflicted meat eaters love the taste and protein meat delivers, but are concerned about its impact on their health, the environment, and animal welfare. Market research shows 83% of American consumers have concerns over factory farms.1 However, traditional plant-based alternatives often fall short on taste, texture and nutrition, leading to category skepticism. "We created a product that we believe will unlock the plant-based category for the mainstream consumer. SWAP Chicken's superior taste, clean ingredients and unrivaled product versatility finally enable chefs to recreate traditional recipes using only plant-based ingredients. We believe SWAP Chicken will elevate menu possibilities, making it easier than ever to SWAP animal meat for plant protein." stated Tristan Maurel, CEO and co-founder.

SWAP has already begun to make waves in Chicago's vibrant culinary scene, with popular restaurants like The Chicago Diner, Spirit Elephant, Soul Veg City, Majani, Duke's Alehouse, Clucker's Charcoal Chicken, and SteMartaen Vegan Catering adding SWAP Chicken to their menus.

SWAP Food is a Certified B Corp, reinforcing its commitment to social and environmental impact.
