New Culture announced today an investment from CJ CheilJedang, a $23 billion Korean conglomerate, the world's leading supplier of fermentation based bio-products, and 25% market-share holder in the U.S. frozen pizza market. The investment will go towards product development and scale-up of New Culture's animal-free mozzarella slated to launch in pizzerias in 2023.
