Mosa Meat, one of the leaders in the cultivated meat industry, prepares for market entry by opening the largest cultivated meat campus in the world. The new facility will start the first production runs in a matter of days.
Mosa Meat, the pioneers and a leader in the cultivated meat space that grows beef directly from animal cells, opened a new 2,760 square metre (29,708 square feet) scale-up facility in Maastricht. This fourth facility completes the new Mosa C.A.M.P.U.S. or Center for Advanced Meat Production, Upscaling, and Sustainability for a total footprint of 7,340 square metres (79,007 square feet).
“As this scale-up facility comes online next month, we will have the capacity to make tens of thousands of cultivated hamburgers. The facility is designed to grow as demand increases with regulatory approvals and regional market entries, up to hundreds of thousands of cultivated hamburgers per year. And in combination with our contract manufacturer in Singapore, even a lot more. We are excited to debut this great tasting hamburger today that even hardcore carnivores will love,” said Maarten Bosch, CEO of Mosa Meat.
“When we introduced cultivated meat to the world, we predicted it would take 10 years to create a consumer product. Now, almost exactly 10 years later, we have a consumer product that we can start making in larger quantities and that we can start serving to consumers in Singapore, pending regulatory approval,” said Mark Post, co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Mosa Meat.
