About
jack and annie's is a manufacturer of plant-based meat alternatives including chicken, beef, and fish products, made primarily from jackfruit. The company provides various jackfruit-based products including tenders, patties, nuggets, wings, meatballs, and breakfast sausages, as well as plant-based shaved steak, burgers, and fish fillets. All products are made from whole plants and serve as sources of protein and fiber, offering consumers meat-free alternatives that replicate the texture and taste of conventional meat products. The company's use of jackfruit as a primary ingredient distinguishes it from competitors that rely on soy, pea, or wheat protein, providing a whole-food, minimally processed approach to plant-based meat alternatives. Jackfruit's natural fibrous texture makes it particularly suitable for replicating pulled meat textures in products like shredded chicken and beef applications. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Boulder, United States, the company has raised $23.0M in Series B funding from investors including Creadev, Wheatsheaf Group, Beta Angels, Desert Bloom, and Invesco Mutual Fund.
