‘Next-generation meat alternatives are fast becoming a more frequent preference for meat-eaters’.

Meatless Farm has opened the UK’s first plant-based drive-thru to target meat-eaters who switched to plant-based eating during the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to the UK vegan meat brand, the M*** F*** drive-thru is part of Meatless Farm’s provocative campaign aimed at showing customers that going meat-free comes with “no compromise.”

Growing plant-based audience

The brand referenced its study which showed that 35 percent of meat-eating Brits say they have eaten more plant-based food during lockdown. The brand added that it has seen sales rise 179 percent year-on-year.

Explaining that the drive thru would help the brand tap into the growing customer base and also serve as a “opportunity to engage consumers, who perhaps haven’t tried plant-based before, to start on their journey.”

“We are building a new category; next-generation meat alternatives are fast becoming a more frequent preference for meat-eaters,” Michael Hunter, Chief Growth Officer said.

‘Collaboration’

The company has partnered street-food chain Mother Flipper to create plant-based versions of its meaty classics. You can exclude cheese from your order to make it vegan.
