About

Meatly is a UK-based foodtech startup founded in 2020 that develops cultivated meat products specifically for pet food. It uses animal cells, grown from a single chicken egg, cultivated in bioreactor technology to produce meat without animal slaughter. The company aims to tackle the key technical and cost challenges in cultivated meat production. Meatly raised £10.4 million in Series A funding led by Oyster Bay Venture Capital, Clean Growth Fund, and JamJar Investments, enabling it to construct Europe's largest 20,000-litre bioreactor facility in London. The facility will scale production for commercial pet food launches planned for 2027. Their business model focuses on sustainable and scalable cultivated meat supply for premium pet food brands and potentially broader cultivated meat markets in the future.
