## About

Based in Auckland, New Zealand, and founded in 2015 by founder Shama Sukul Lee, Sunfed Meats is a food technology company that manufactures plant-based meat. In April 2024, Sunfed Meats filed for bankruptcy.


Sunfed Meat's product line includes chicken-free chicken, bull-free beef, and boar-free bacon, made from yellow pea protein and other natural ingredients without adding gluten, soy, GMO, and preservatives. The products also contain other natural ingredients such as cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, pea fiber, and yeast extract, with each product tailored to provide specific nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins. Sunfed Meats uses proprietary water-based techniques to create plant-based proteins, ensuring the final product is nutrient-dense and minimally processed.
