Beyond Meat Inc. is headed somewhere it’s never been before: supermarket shelves in mainland China.

The faux-meat maker will begin selling its plant-based burger in the frozen section of 50 Freshippo stores in Shanghai this weekend, Beyond said in a statement. Starting in September, it will expand to 48 more locations, in Beijing and Hangzhou, of the Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.-owned chain.
