Steakholder Foods Launches Perfecta™ at Retail Outlets Across the Northeastern U.S.
Ness Ziona, Israel, Sept. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Steakholder Foods Ltd. (Nasdaq: STKH), a global leader in 3D-printing technology for production of whole cuts of plant-based meat, today announced the launch of Perfecta™ Premium Plant-Based Meat at retail locations across the Northeastern United States, marking the brand’s first commercial placement on U.S. store shelves and an important milestone in the Company’s growth strategy. The rollout is being supported through distribution with KeHE Distributors, one of the nation’s leading natural and specialty food distributors.
Perfecta™ has been developed to deliver a new standard in plant-based eating by addressing the category’s most persistent consumer challenges: taste, texture, and the authentic experience of enjoying a whole cut of meat. The product line combines Steakholder Foods’ proprietary production technology with premium ingredients to create a range of plant-based offerings designed to closely replicate the sensory experience of conventional meat.
The initial retail rollout includes a selection of premium products, including:
| ● | Plant-Based Marbled Steak |
| ● | Plant-Based Filet Mignon |
| ● | Plant-Based Chicken Breast |
| ● | Plant-Based Salmon Patties |
| ● | Plant-Based White Fish Patties |
These products feature tender, fibrous textures and marbling-like characteristics that enhance flavor and juiciness while providing consumers with a satisfying plant-based alternative.
“Our launch in the Northeastern United States represents an exciting step forward as Perfecta begins reaching consumers through retail shelves for the first time,” said Arik Kaufman, Chief Executive Officer of Steakholder Foods. “We believe the plant-based category is ready for a new generation of products that deliver on taste and eating experience without compromise. We are on track with our launch, and the Northeast is just the beginning of our commercial journey, and we intend to expand both our retail footprint and our distribution network as consumer demand grows.”
The Company’s current launch strategy focuses on building awareness and consumer trial throughout the Northeast U.S. market while establishing a foundation for broader expansion across additional regions. Steakholder Foods also intends to pursue relationships with additional distribution partners over time, supporting its objective of making Perfecta products available to a wider range of retailers and consumers nationwide.
Perfecta is positioned as a next-generation plant-based protein platform capable of expanding across multiple protein categories. The brand’s portfolio includes both whole-cut and traditional formats, offering consumers premium alternatives designed to better replicate the taste, texture, and appearance of conventional meat and seafood products.
