Chicagoans will soon get a taste of lab-grown chicken.
Upside Foods Inc., one of two companies cleared to sell the product in the US, is investing more than $140 million in a new factory in one of the city’s suburbs, the company said in a statement on Thursday. This will be the California-based firm’s first commercial-scale factory.
“This new facility is a significant investment in our communities — creating new good-paying jobs while advancing our ambitious clean energy goals to create a more sustainable future,” Illinois Governor JB Pritzker said. Upside got the green light from the US government to sell products commercially earlier this year. It is currently only available once a month at a single restaurant in San Francisco.
Upside’s 187,000-square-foot plant, based in Glenview, is expected to create at least 75 new jobs. While the facility will start by producing ground cell-based chicken products, there are plans to expand to other types of meat.

The diamond industry leader said Wednesday that the trial showed that it wasn’t a sustainable market.
