Tom Hayes, the company’s president and CEO, said:
Tyson Foods is transforming from a
company with a strong heritage in chicken to a modern food company that is
challenging the industry status quo. Consumers expect more from food companies
today, and we’re up for the challenge.
Tyson reiterated its commitment to supporting
vegan protein through Tyson Ventures, the company’s recently formed
investment arm. In 2016, Tyson Ventures made an undisclosed
investment in plant-based protein company Beyond Meat. What’s more, last
year Hayes said, “Plant-based protein is growing
almost, at this point, a little faster than animal-based, so I think the
migration may continue in that direction.

Just last month, Tyson
Foods invested in clean meat company Memphis Meats. This was the second
time a major meat producer backed the company. The first was Cargill, which
made history last year with its landmark investment. Memphis Meats is
known for creating real beef burgers without cows and the world’s first chicken and duck meat without animal slaughter.

Meat producers can no longer ignore the wave of people
ditching animal products in favor of a healthy, sustainable, and compassionate
vegan diet. The research firm Global
Data reports that veganism in America has increased by 600 percent since 2014,
and Allied Market Research predicts that the meat substitute market will grow 8.4 percent over the next
three years, potentially reaching $5.2 billion globally by 2020.

More people enjoying vegan food is great news for the billions of animals who suffer at factory
farms. Cows, pigs, chickens, and fish raised and killed for food are
subjected to unthinkable cruelties: tiny, filthy cages; horrific mutilations;
and violent slaughter.
