These deals build on a previously announced manufacturing and distribution partnership with Eurovo Group, an Italian egg producer with large-scale operations in multiple countries, and a sales and distribution deal with Germany’s largest poultry producer PHW Gruppe.
The San Francisco business, formerly known as Hampton Creek, said the new deals will provide the scale needed to meet the “increasing worldwide demand” for its Just Egg product.
It said the partnerships will result in “millions of additional points of potential distribution and access to production facilities on multiple continents”.
Josh Tetrick, co-founder and CEO of Just, said: “Our ability to scale to meet the demand is our main focus in 2020. It’s humbling to see some of the world’s most influential food companies join us to meet the challenge.
