SINGAPORE – In efforts to bring more slaughter-free chicken tenders, meatballs and even steaks to diners, a local cell-based meat manufacturer will set up an 80,000 sq ft plant in Changi by 2025.

It now produces small batches of cultivated chicken cells from an 80 sq m space in Ayer Rajah Crescent to help make chicken nuggets, fillets and satay skewers for Good Meat. The plant is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2023 and operational by the second half of this year, said Eat Just vice-president and head of global communications and public affairs Andrew Noyes.

In late 2022, Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs Masagos Zulkifli visited the Ayer Rajah facility, followed by a visit in January by Singapore Mufti Nazirudin Mohd Nasir, the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore’s halal development team and members of Singapore’s fatwa committee.
