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.

From our early roots in the canned tomato business, Teasdale Latin Foods has evolved into a full-line producer of top quality Hispanic and Latino-inspired offerings. For more than 70 years we`ve been feeding consumers just like family, and we couldn`t be prouder of our heritage of quality as Teasdale Latin Foods. Throughout our history, we`ve taken great care in sourcing the best conventional and organic ingredients and, with an artisan`s passion, creating the highest quality foods. Today, Teasdale Latin Foods offers a full line of conventional, organic and refried beans, hominy, tortillas, taco shells, flatbreads, salsas, hot sauce, cheese & enchilada sauces and a wide array of seasonings, peppers and mixes. Whether it`s a private label, co-manufacturing or branded option, we`re big enough for efficiency, but small enough that quality isn`t compromised. All our products are created around a common theme: our desire to provide high quality, nutritious, on-trend foods that deliver the best in fiesta worthy flavor. We call it “Simply Especial,” and we live it every day.
