Carolyn Rehbock, vice-president for insights and innovation at Tyson, said consumers had told the company they wanted “a breakfast they can heat quickly and take on-the-go”.

Tyson’s prepared foods business is its smallest by revenue, accounting for 10% of sales, according to figures for the company’s first quarter to 28 December.

However, when Tyson reported results for its last full financial year in November, the company said it was “doubling down” on prepared foods.

Alongside those results, the company also announced changes to its management structure that saw it create a senior role for its prepared foods business.
