“PlantX’s culture is driven by a passion for sports, plant-based wellbeing and sustainability and having Rémy’s support further shows how the Company is attracting exciting new partnerships that reflect our values,” said PlantX Founder, Sean Dollinger. “Rémy is a legend in Squamish and in the world of mountain biking. Collaborating with him will help boost our ties with the Squamish community and our brand exposure among other like-minded athletes and their following base.”

Mr. Métailler will be involved in broadening PlantX’s brand exposure in Squamish and the Canadian West Coast, as well as promoting the Company’s product offerings to his dedicated audiences across his personal platforms. As part of this initiative, the Company launched “Rémy’s Picks”, a new personalized web page showcasing Mr. Métailler’s curated list of PlantX products. “Rémy’s Picks” can be found on the Company’s U.S. and Canadian e-commerce platforms and includes Mr. Metallier’s favorite plant-based products from brands such as Oatly, Native Forest, Cadia and Jeff’s Garden.

“I am so excited to partner with PlantX. My diet has been mostly plant-based for several years and I love trying new recipes,” said PlantX Ambassador, Rémy Métailler. “Having the support of PlantX is a great way to explore new food and lifestyle options and related products that I can share with my community.”
