Meeting Market Demand With Plant-Based Alternatives

On January 10, Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ: BYND) and Pizza Hut, which is owned by Yum! Brands (NYSE:YUM), announced the rollout of plant-based Beyond Italian Sausage Crumbles throughout Pizza Hut Canada.

This launch is part of the collaboration between Beyond Meat and Yum! Brands to introduce plant-based menu items to meet the growing demand for plant-based meat alternatives to the Canadian Market.

This isn’t the first time Yum! Brands, the parent company of KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and The Habit Burger Grill, has launched new products to meet the growing interest in plant-based alternatives. In late 2019, Plant-Based KFC was tested in the market and after “extraordinary demand” it has become a staple.

Meanwhile, Supermarket chain Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc. (NASDAQ:SFM) has continued to grow its presence across the US with new store openings.
