Next Meats Co. Ltd. is a food-tech company based in Tokyo that focuses on delivering plant-based products to ensure a better future for the environment and generations.

In 2023, Next Meats Co. Ltd. and their group company Dr. Foods Co. Ltd. will be launching Vegan Foie Gras, Vegan Caviar and shelf stable Next Meats products to the plant-based markets in North America.
