Based in Berkeley, CA, UPSIDE Foods (formerly known as Memphis Meats) is developing a way to grow real meat, poultry and seafood directly from animal cells, without the need to raise and slaughter animals. These products are not vegetarian, plant-based or meat alternatives -- they are real meat, made without the animal. Founded as the world`s first cultivated meat company in 2015, UPSIDE Foods has achieved numerous industry-defining milestones, including being the first company to produce multiple species of meat (beef, chicken and duck). The company believes that people shouldn`t have to choose between the foods they love and a thriving planet, and is working to build a better food system where everybody has access to delicious, humane, and sustainable meat. UPSIDE Foods has won various industry awards, including New York Times` Good Tech Awards, FastCo`s Next Big Thing in Tech, and the Best and Brightest Companies to Work For in the Nation by the National Association for Business Resources.

Sanderson Farms is one of the nation's leading poultry corporations, with annual sales of more than $3.3 billion. Our 15,000 plus employees and more than 1,000 independent growers are committed to offering our customers the best products on the market today. Although we’ve grown in size from a farm supply business to the nation’s third largest poultry producer, we’re still a family-owned company. We adhere to the same values of honesty, integrity and innovation that have been with us since our founding in 1947. We are proud that our chicken is 100% Natural, which means it is free of things like carrageenan, broth, salt and other additives that some companies use to pump up their chicken. Our plants process over 12.1 million chickens weekly. Combined with our feed mills and hatcheries, we are positioned to keep up with the growing demand for our products. Sanderson Farms was incorporated in 1955 as a fully integrated poultry processing company that produces, processes, markets and distributes fresh and frozen chicken products. Sanderson Farms became a publicly traded stock in 1987 and is listed on NASDAQ under the symbol SAFM.
