Tim Hortons Removes Beyond Meat products in most Outlets in Canada

Restaurant Brands International Inc that runs Tim Hortons has removed Beyond Meat Inc's burgers and sandwiches from its menu.

The breakfast chain has done a nationwide roll-out except in Ontario and British Columbia restaurants.

Beyond Meat's shares fell nearly 6%, while Restaurant Brands' stock was down about 1% on Wednesday, reported Reuters.

"Both the Beyond Burger and Beyond Meat breakfast sandwiches were introduced as a limited-time offer," said Restaurant Brand in a statement by adding that they may explore offering the product again in other provinces at a future date based on ongoing guest feedback.

Tim Hortons said in July it was expanding plant-based meat additions in nearly 4,000 restaurants. There are about 4,800 Tim Hortons restaurants in North America.

Beyond Meat said the menu items were introduced as a limited-time offering and could be brought back in the future.
