Fungi-based alternative meats producer Meati announced the launch of its mushroom root cutlets and steaks at 380 Sprouts Farmers Market locations across 23 states.

The Colorado-based companies’ products are currently available in limited quantities at Sprouts Farmers Market and Birdcall restaurant locations in Colorado and online direct-to-consumer. The portfolio of products offered by Meati includes Meati Classic Cutlet, Meati Crispy Cutlet, Meati Classic Steak, and Meati Carne Asada Steak; all of which are mycelium-based meat alternatives.

Analyst QuickTake : The launch follows Meati’s announcement of major wide-scale retail launch plans for the year, along with the appointment of key leadership positions and the establishment of a scientific advisory board to focus on nutrition research and scaling up. Wide-scale availability will be a key milestone for Meati with its expectation of becoming the market leader in the US plant-based meat market by 2025.
