Abstract

JBS, which calls itself the world’s largest protein company, is taking a majority stake in the Spanish cell-based meat firm BioTech Foods. The $100 million investment will include a plant in Spain and a research center in Brazil, where JBS is based. JBS expects the Spanish plant to reach commercial production by 2024 and plans to eventually add a plant at the R&D center. While this is JBS’s first foray into cultivated meat, which is grown from animal cells, competitors Tyson and Cargill have made similar investments.
