BEYOND MEATBALLS™ AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE NETHERLANDS
AND SWITZERLAND

The fan-favorite plant-based meatballs become the fourth Beyond Meat® product offering in
Europe and are now available across major retailers in The Netherlands and Switzerland

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., July 13, 2021 – Beyond Meat®, a leader in plant-based meat, today
announced the launch of Beyond Meatballs™ in the European market with prominent retailers
across The Netherlands and Switzerland. The delicious plant-based meatballs, which are
produced locally in Europe, are now available at 450 Albert Heijn stores throughout The
Netherlands and available for purchase through online supermarket Picnic. In Switzerland, Beyond Meatballs can now be found across 120 COOP stores.

Beyond Meatballs are a delicious plant-based option for classic comfort food dishes -- from
Swedish Meatballs to pastas, sandwiches and more. Pre-seasoned with a signature blend of
Italian spices such as rosemary, sage and oregano and ready to cook, they are perfect for a
convenient, satisfying meal with all the environmental upsides of plant-based meat. In addition to
great taste and texture, Beyond Meatballs have 16g of protein per serving and are made from
plant-based ingredients without soy, gluten or cholesterol.

"We’re excited to bring our fourth retail offering to the European market through our partnerships
with Albert Heijn, COOP and Picnic, particularly as the European market continues to see strong
demand for plant-based options,” said Ihab Leheta, Vice President International Business
Development, Beyond Meat. “Following the launch of Beyond Mince® in The Netherlands and
Switzerland this past spring, we’re proud to offer another delicious and convenient product at
retail so that more consumers have the option to choose a product that’s better for our planet.”

This new product is arriving to the broader European market as demand for plant-based meat
options continues to grow. According to Nielsen data, European plant-based consumption has
grown by 49% in the past two years, with sales value growing by 50% in The Netherlands during
the same period.1 Beyond Meat’s unwavering commitment to non-GMO ingredients has enabled
the company to more easily and rapidly expand across the European market and meet growing
consumer demand.

Currently, the Beyond Burger®, Beyond Sausage® and Beyond Mince are sold at hundreds of
retail locations throughout Europe. In addition to retail, Beyond Meat is providing European
consumers with increased access to plant-based protein through foodservice partnerships
throughout the European Union such as McDonald’s, Pizza Hut and Starbucks. Globally, Beyond
Meat products are available at approximately 118,000 retail and foodservice outlets in 80+
countries.
