Shama Sukul Lee, Sunfed founder and chief executive officer, said: “We challenged ourselves to a high bar of not making a patty, but a whole piece of fleshy meat with long succulent fibres that would be a good replacement to boneless skinless chicken breast pieces. We also wanted it to be just as versatile, so it had to work easily with existing chicken recipes.”

She said her vision is to create a “highly scalable regenerative protein company that can feed the world without damage”.

In November Suinfed was said to be eyeing global growth after being backed by investors to the tune of NZD10m (US$6.8m at the exchange rate at the time).
