PLANTPLUS FOODS POWERS UP CHOICES AND UNVEILS NEW SUPERFOODS LINE-UP AND CHEF-INSPIRED APPETIZERS

The parent company of Hilary's PrimePlants and Sol Cuisine will sample next-gen plant-forward foods exclusively at Expo West

ANAHEIM, Calif., March 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- PlantPlus Foods is excited to showcase a range of new plant-forward food experiences during its presence at this year's Expo West (booth number 4908) from March 9th to 11th, 2023. Featuring products from PlantPlus Foods and the company's two leading plant-forward retail brands, Hilary's PrimePlants and Sol Cuisine, visitors of the booth will have the opportunity to sample new delicious foods before these products are officially launched in stores this Summer 2023. 

Celebrating the launch, the company -- including its Chief Executive Officer, John Pinto, and Chief Marketing Officer, Ana Ferrell -- will host a happy hour on Thursday, March 9th at 4 pm, when visitors are encouraged to try all of the offerings paired with superfood-based mocktails. The menu of samples includes PlantPlus Foods' sausage patties, Hilary's PrimePlants' burgers, bites, and fritters, and Sol Cuisine's buffalo cauliflower wings and falafel. 

PlantPlus Foods, with its retail brands Hilary's PrimePlants and Sol Cuisine, is a bet on the future of the sector. "Our company is uniquely poised and committed to nourishing the power of choices – from retail to private label and foodservice. Our portfolio range is all about promoting delicious foods in different forms and with Hilary's PrimePlants, we dialed up on nutrition with purpose behind superfoods.", says John Pinto, CEO of PlantPlus Foods. The company is connected all the way to growers bringing farm to fork solutions across a multitude of innovative retail products and menu items that don't sacrifice taste, texture and variety in the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle - craveable for any occasion.

As more American shoppers are including plant-rich foods to their plates, the plant-based space continues to thrive. In 2022, Bloomberg increased its 10-year market forecast, projecting the plant-based meat industry to grow from just under $11 billion to $120 billion in less than a decade. Additionally, the global frozen food category is experiencing skyrocketing growth since the pandemic and revenue is expected to reach $504.4 billion by 2030, a 74% increase since 2021. More diners are packing their freezers with foods that they see are healthy and convenient.

While the plant-based boom is undeniable, the future of the sector often doesn't taste that great, according to diners, as almost 50 percent of plant-based consumers are unsatisfied with the options, saying they are still looking for more diverse flavors and products. 

The company's newest launch behind its retail brand Hilary's PrimePlants, underscores the company's ongoing commitment to nourishing the power of choice by offering a continuously expanding array of options for every taste and occasion. "Our company was created to deliver great tasting foods made with plant-forward, wholesome ingredients. The new Hilary's PrimePlants line is powered by nutritious superfoods and brings convenient, delicious foods in formats that can perfectly fit flexible lifestyles, as consumers are looking for a variety of great tasting options across dayparts," says Ana Ferrell.
