Beneo (Parsippany, NJ) has acquired Dutch company Meatless B.V. (Goes, The Netherlands), expanding its plant-based meat portfolio. Meatless B.V. specializes in plant-based texturizing solutions for meat and fish alternatives

“Following the recently announced investment into our new faba bean processing plant, the acquisition of Meatless B.V. is the next logical step to reaffirm Beneo’s commitment to strengthening its business with solutions for plant-based alternatives,” said Andreas Herber, a member of Beneo’s executive board, in a press release.

Meatless B.V. creates plant-based ingredients from rice, faba beans, wheat, pea, lupin, and quinoa. “This range fully complements Beneo’s ingredients portfolio and allows for exciting new combinations,” said Beneo in a press release. “As a result, Beneo’s customers will benefit from a much broader variety and greater flexibility that supports the development of meat and fish alternatives.”
