Kilcoy Global Foods (KGF), an Australian meat company, has filed for an initial public offering (IPO) as it seeks to expand in Asia and strengthen its presence in the U.S. market, according to Meat+Poultry.

In its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, KGF said the proceeds will support strategic investments, production growth and digital automation. While headquartered in Australia, KGF also operates in the U.S. and China, distributing products to over 40 countries. Backed by China-based Hosen Capital, KGF owns the Ruprecht Co. in Illinois.

The company posted $2.19 billion in 2024 revenue, with $514.2 million earned in early 2025.
