Planted is a Plant-Based & Alt-Protein company founded in 2019 and based in Kemptthal, Switzerland.

Planted is doubling fermentation capacity in Germany and extending its whole-cut tech to cold cuts.
planted.chicken is Planted's flagship product, a plant-based chicken analogue made from a short list of natural ingredients such as pea protein, pea fiber, rapeseed oil and water, produced by extrusion to create a fibrous, pull-apart texture. Sold as strips and pieces across European grocery retail and used in restaurant kitchens, it is positioned as a clean-label, additive-light alternative to poultry that can be cooked and seasoned like conventional chicken. It anchored the company's early growth before its move into more complex whole-cut formats.
Planted's whole-cut line uses a proprietary biostructuring fermentation process, on top of extrusion, to build the dense, layered muscle texture of a steak from plant proteins. The goal is to move beyond ground and strip formats toward sliceable cuts that mimic the bite and grain of beef, targeting both retail shoppers and chefs. The whole-cut program was a stated use of proceeds from the company's Series B round and represents its bet that texture, not just flavor, is the key barrier to mainstream plant-meat adoption.
