Beyond Meat, Inc. (Nasdaq: BYND), one of the fastest growing food
companies in the United States, rang the Nasdaq MarketSite bell in
Times Square today in celebration of its initial public offering
(IPO) on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
Beyond Meat, Inc. offers a range of revolutionary plant-based
meats. They build meat directly from plants, an innovation that

sensory attributes of popular animal-based meat products while
enjoying the nutritional and environmental benefits of eating
plant-based meat products.
“Today we become the first plant-based food company to list on
Nasdaq, marking an important milestone in our mission of
making plant-based meat accessible globally,” said Ethan Brown,
founder and chief executive officer of Beyond Meat. “With this
progress we are one step closer towards becoming the generation
that separates meat from animals, unlocking the next era in the
American story of innovation, disruption, and growth. We have
always been a consumer driven brand and we are excited to invite
the brand’s longtime fans and supporters to join in on our vision
for the Future of Protein™. Our goal is for people everywhere to
have access to the health and environmental benefits of our
delicious plant-based meats.”
“Beyond Meat, Inc. has sustainability at its core, and with
their unique approach to their product, the market, and their
brand, we have no doubt they will continue to disrupt the food
industry,” said Nelson Griggs, President of the Nasdaq Stock
Exchange. “We are so excited to partner with them on this milestone
and wish them nothing but success in the future.”
