Saudi Arabia’s “Vegan Prince” Set to Reap Rewards from Cultivated Meat Start-Up

The esteemed French franchise, Monoprix, offers an array of high-quality foods and the latest in home and decor trends. Following its successful debut at Dubai Hills Gardenia Residence last year, the latest branch now offers a unique ‘local fresh market’ experience, showcasing a diverse range of meats, choice cuts, seafood, and cheese selections, each bearing the signature of renowned French gourmet professionals. You can also find delectable baked goods and pastries reminiscent of Parisian patisseries. In line with its commitment to sustainability, Monoprix promotes local produce and adopts a ‘farm to fork’ approach, along with an extensive collection of high-quality private-label food and non-food products.

Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed bin Talal Al Saud, known as the “vegan prince,” is poised to gain significant profits from his investment in a start-up specializing in meat made from cultivated animal cells. The US government’s recent approval of Upside Foods products has opened the door for American consumers to savour this innovative offering. Having a track record of supporting disruptive start-ups, the Dubai-based founder of KBW Ventures has backed ventures ranging from vegan ice cream to plant-based pet food. Cell-cultivated meat, also known as labgrown or “no-kill” meat, offers a revolutionary approach to producing chicken or beef without the need for animal slaughter. Upside Foods, formerly known as Memphis Meats, made a notable splash in 2017, raising $17 million in its initial round of fundraising. With prominent backers like Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Kimbal Musk, and food conglomerate Cargill, this venture is set to reshape the future of the food industry.
