NEW YORK, NY – Oct. 13, 2020 – Bowlero Corp, the world leader in bowling entertainment and parent company of the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA), and Lightlife® (“Lightlife”), a leading plant-based protein brand owned by Greenleaf Foods, SPC (“Greenleaf Foods”), announced a partnership today that will bring the Lightlife Plant-Based Burger to Bowlero menus nationwide.

“We’re excited to partner with the PBA and add to the Bowlero experience by offering a delicious plant-based burger that’s made with simple, recognizable ingredients,” said Dan Curtin, President of Greenleaf Foods.

As an official partner, the Lightlife Plant-Based Burger is now available at over 100 Bowlero and Bowlmor Lanes centers across the country.

“After reviewing the brands available to us in the plant-based burger space, we made the easy decision to choose the Lightlife Burger because it delivers great taste and is made with simple, recognizable ingredients,” said Steve Bartek, Vice President of Food and Beverage at Bowlero Corp. “Consumers want more plant-based food options when dining at Bowlero and we’re able to deliver from our partnership with Lightlife.”

Lightlife will also serve as an Official Sponsor of the 2020 PBA Tour Fall Swing that kicked off in September with the PBA League Elias Cup and the Storm PBA World Series of Bowling XI animal pattern events on FS1.
