The Sarno brothers are also co-founders of Gathered Foods, makers of Good Catch plant-based seafood, which saw exponential growth over 2021. Together they are a driving force for plant-based industry in the UK and US, and now beyond: the company today announces its expansion into Northern Europe and also confirms plans to launch into Asia by the end of the summer, starting with Thailand.
