About Beyond Meat

Unlike other vegetarian products, Beyond Meat aims to replicate the appearance, texture, and taste of meat, appealing to both omnivores and vegetarians. The products are widely available across the U.S., Canada, and in 83 additional countries. International revenue represented 31% of 2021 sales. The company’s products are available in retail stores and in the food service channel. In 2019, sales were evenly split between these channels, but the mix changed to 70% retail/30% food service in 2021. The recovery from the pandemic and new deals with McDonald’s and Yum Brands are expected to bring food-service sales back to 50% in the future.
