Plant-based meat substitute maker Beyond Meat said it reached an agreement with Walmart to expand its distribution.
Walmart will triple the availability of the Beyond Meat burger to around 2,400 U.S. locations starting next week, according to Beyond Meat’s statement.
The agreement follows plans to sell the group's frozen breakfast sausage patties at around 5,000 stores around the U.S, including Walmart, Kroger and privately-owned firm Publix.
Last month, Beyond Meat reported a second quarter loss of -$10.2 million, as the cost of re-routing its burgers and sausages from restaurants to retail outlets during the peak of the coronavirus pandemic affected earnings.
