San Francisco Food Banks Get a Surprise Delivery of $2 Million of Wagyu Steak

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, finance, food

Idaho-based beef purveyor Snake River Farms is donating 35,000 10-ounce steaks to Bay Area food banks, with a total value of $2 million, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. It’s part of a larger initiative the company announced last week, which will send $8 million worth of its American wagyu to cities around the country to feed hospital workers, laid-off restaurant staff and other communities affected by the Covid-19 crisis. Snake River is relying on regional distribution partners in Los Angeles, Seattle, New York and San Francisco to help them get their donation to nonprofits.


With restaurants shut down, Snake River Farms is giving its premium beef a good home.
