05 Mar 2020 --- A major collaboration in plant-based food has been launched in the US to address a key barrier for many companies – distribution.

The partnership comes as demand for meat-free alternatives is skyrocketing and plant-based NPD expands across several categories. However, being able to scale fast enough can be a challenge for plant-based food companies.
