EAT BEYOND PORTFOLIO COMPANY NABATI FOODS SPONSORS NFL PLAYER-LED YOUTH FOOTBALL CAMP
Eat Beyond Global Holdings Inc.'s portfolio company Nabati Foods Global Inc. is serving as the top sponsor for Mario Addison's youth football camp. Mr. Addison is the defensive end for the NFL's Buffalo Bills team.
Addison is hosting his 7th annual football camp on June 26th in his hometown of Birmingham, Alabama. Nabati will be supplying the 650 kids, ages 8-18, with nutritious and delicious Nabati plant-based burgers for lunch.
"Nabati Foods demonstrates tremendous innovation in not just its food products across its grocery, foodservice, and industrial channels, but with these types of partnerships," Eat Beyond CEO Patrick Morris said. "More and more athletes are choosing to eat plant-based completely, or at least to integrate more plant-based foods into their diets. Educating the next generation about healthy and diverse food options while supporting youth involved in team sports is a fantastic cause."
Nabati Foods recently launched its plant-based meat and cheeze products in the United States, shortly after announcing the completion of its new manufacturing facility which has enabled it to quintuple its production capacity.
"Eat Beyond and its portfolio companies are ready to capitalize on creating consumer outreach opportunities beyond the conventional marketing approach," Morris said. "It's encouraging to see Nabati become the lead sponsor of an important community event that also features major brands such as Gatorade and FritoLay."
