Gathered Foods, maker of the Good Catch plant-based seafood analog brand, is expanding its products to several European markets.
In the Netherlands, Good Catch's plant-based seafood products are now available in more than 70 stores including Albert Heijn, Jumbo, and Coop. Good Catch is also now available in specialty supermarket chain Sanchez Romero in Madrid, Spain.
Good Catch is working with distributors Green Pro International and Zandbergen World's Finest Meats (Zoeterwoude) in the Netherlands, along with PHW in Germany, to increase product availability across many retail and foodservice channels throughout Europe, the supplier said in a press release.
"Gathered Foods has plans to continue its expansion in these key European markets and more into 2021 through various distribution channels, including restaurant partners,” the company said.
Earlier this year, Gathered Foods launched in more than 300 stores in the United Kingdom via a distribution partnership with Tesco. Then, it entered into the Canadian market through a distribution partnership with Loblaws, where its products are available in more than 300 stores.
And this spring, San Diego, California-based Bumble Bee partnered with Good Catch. Bumble Bee said in a press release it would “leverage its sales, distribution and logistics expertise to ensure that consumers nationwide have access to Good Catch products at affordable prices.”
“As we continue to grow our brand and expand our distribution footprint internationally, we're incredibly proud to establish this strong retail base across Europe," Gathered Foods CEO Christine Mei said. "Following our successful partnership with Tesco and our recent launch into Canada with Loblaws, broadening our availability in Europe was the next natural progression.”
