Founder and CEO. Ethan Brown |
In reviewing Q2 results Ethan Brown CEO of Beyond Meat stated, "We are pleased to report record net revenues and the return to growth in foodservice as our customers welcomed consumers back to their venues. We are also proud of our retail performance, where we drove year-over-year growth despite cycling last year's demand surge driven by consumer panic-buying."
|
Competition in the "faux meat" case |
Brown added, "We continue to make substantial investments in our long-term growth here in the U.S. and abroad, maintaining our focus on building innovation, production, and team capabilities for the future. We are thrilled with the response to our new Beyond Chicken product and the continued accolades we are receiving for our latest iteration of the Beyond Burger. I'm optimistic about what lies ahead. That said, given the recent uptick of COVID-19 cases, which could disrupt demand patterns, we believe caution for the balance of the year generally remains appropriate."
Recently Ethan Brown suggested a tax on real meat. This may be construed as a self-serving aspiration rather than a dispassionate, altruistic and eco-friendly sentiment.
