VANCOUVER, BC and EDMONTON, AB - November 24, 2020 -
InvestorsHub NewsWire - Eat Beyond Global Holdings
Inc. (CSE: EATS) ("Eat Beyond" or the
"Company"), an investment issuer focused on the
global plant-based and alternative food sector, is announcing that
its portfolio company, Nabati Foods Inc.
("Nabati"), launched its plant-based meat line
this month on November 3rd, and the products are
expected to be in stores by January of 2021.
This plant-based meat line is also planned to launch in the U.S.
in Q1 of 2021, in time for category resets in retail stores that
take place in March and April.
"Our Nabati burger is very different than a lot of what we are
seeing on the market today," said Ahmad Yeyah, CEO of Nabati. "We
are developing a plant-based chicken burger instead of a red meat
burger, and it is also unbreaded. This differentiates our product
from what is in the market and ultimately improves the experience
that the customer has with the product - because they have the
freedom to choose how they want to enjoy it - with or without
breading. We also provide recipes if the customer wants to bread
the product themselves, or they can enjoy it as-is to save on
calories. This all contributes to creating the best possible
experience for those who enjoy our products. We have also added a
plant-based fish burger to this line, which is also not something
you typically see."
Nabati is a private food technology company that offers healthy,
plant-based products. Nabati is based in Edmonton, Alberta, and
serves the North American Market. All products are certified
gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, refined sugar-free, all natural
(non-GMO), certified kosher, and certified vegan.
"My wife and I started the company in 2014, two years after we
moved to Alberta, after deciding that we were simply not satisfied
with the variety of plant-based foods available in store -
especially desserts," added Yehya. "We then began developing our
own recipes at home, and sharing them with friends and family, and
eventually we took them to the farmer's market, where the products
were very well received. We started this business with $33,000 and
now we have our products in stores across North America."
Demand for the products has been growing steadily, and sales
grew organically by over 33% in Canada in just the past year,
largely from Nabati's dairy-free cheesecakes and Nabati Cheeze
Shreds. Nabati's dairy-free cheesecakes have just begun selling in
the U.S. this fall, and 2021 will see Nabati expanding its
production facility as well as its popular Nabati Cheeze line,
introducing cheese slices. Demand for the cheese products has been
enormous and the company plans to not only expand distribution
across the U.S. but also throughout Asia and Europe in 2022.
"The company has grown up to this point almost completely
organically by word of mouth," said Patrick Morris, CEO of Eat
Beyond. "We are thrilled to partner with Nabati to further drive
this growth, expand the company's market share and grow its product
lines to serve this rapidly expanding market not just in North
America, but also across the globe. Nabati plans to diversify its
revenue sources through new products and distribution and quickly
reach its (conservative) revenue target of $7M by 2023."
