Plant-based meat is about to be cheaper due to massive new vegan facilities, Plant & Bean, a developer and manufacturer of plant-based food products based out of the United Kingdom, is opening Europe’s largest plant-based meat production facility. This facility will be located in Boston, Lincolnshire on a 65-acre site. The site will have an initial capacity of 55,000 metric tons creating a fully-certified European manufacturing platform to help sub-scale companies, larger international brands, and retailers meet the growing demand for plant-based meat products. An important aspect of Plant & Bean’s business model is its “ecosystem of collaborative innovation," which brings together research institutions and food-tech companies to improve the quality and lower the cost of plant-based meat products by the use of technological development.
