Agronomics Ltd. announced that the Israeli Ministry of Health (IMOH) has granted regulatory approval for the world's first commercial sale of cultivated beef. Agronomics would like to congratulate Aleph Farms on becoming the first company in the world to gain regulatory approval for its cultivated beef product after the IMOH issued a 'no questions' letter, which allows the company to commercialise its products in Israel. Aleph Farms has also filed for regulatory approval in Singapore, Switzerland, the UK and the US, and is advancing its applications in other markets.

Agronomics is aware of multiple companies, including those within its portfolio, that are expecting regulatory approval for cultivated meat and seafood products across several markets. Meanwhile, Vow Food is in the middle of a consultation process after its cultured quail was cleared as safe to eat by Food Standards Australia and New Zealand in December 2023. These announcements follow Upside Foods and Good Meat, which received regulatory approval for their cultivated chicken products in the US last year.
