Beyond Meat, Alibaba and Other Partners in China
Before Beyond Meat and Alibaba partnership, the firm in June announced a distribution deal with Sinodis food distributor also in China. Also, Yum China mentioned they would partner the plant-based burger firm to sell their burger for a while at KFC, Taco Bells, and Pizza Hut stores in China.
However, its partnership with Alibaba now is somewhat a game-changer as they have access to larger customers’ base in many ore locations in China. Data from Euromonitor reveals that China consumes around $170 billion worth of MeatMeat yearly, making them the highest consumer in the world. But then, the Chinese are looking for plant-based substitutes to replace MeatMeat.
By projection, China’s alternative meat market would grow to about $12 billion by 2023 more than $10 billion; it was projected to hit in 2018.
