Growth, as the source summarises it
UPSIDE Foods has experienced several setbacks recently. The company paused a major facility project in Glenview, Illinois, and its lab-grown meat is no longer available at Bar Crenn, its sole venue. Additionally, UPSIDE Foods has cut dozens of jobs and is facing a cultivated meat ban in Florida. Despite these challenges, the company appointed a new Chief Financial Officer and promoted an SVP to Chief Supply Chain & Manufacturing Officer.
