Next Gen Foods, a Singaporean plant-based meat startup, announced the addition of TiNDLE Tenders to its product portfolio along with the appointment of Jared Umsted to the position of senior vice president of Foodservice for the US in its continued efforts of expansion.

The company’s R&D team leveraged its previous product development expertise and 3D scanning and printing technology to develop the new tender which joins its pre-breaded product range. With a cooking time of less than 5 minutes, the tender can be used for main or side dishes and is available for order via DOT Foods.

Along with the launch of the tender, TiNDLE created a new in-house division for foodservice business development led by Jared Umsted. Umsted served in similar positions previously in companies such as Daring, Impossible Foods, and Ronnoco Coffee with his most recent posting being SVP of sales at Elohi Strategic Advisors where he managed the relationship with TiNDLE. In his new role at TiNDLE, Jared will oversee strategic partnerships and management of ongoing and prospective distribution and trade relationships.
