PeaTos Expands into Sam’s Club
PeaTos is expanding distribution into the club channel with Sam’s Club. Beginning May 1, Sam’s Club shoppers will find the new PeaTos’ Cheese-Less Puffs 9 oz. variety on 504 Sam’s Club shelves, nationwide.
“We’re excited that 2023 is proving PeaTos to be one of the fastest growing snack brands in the nation,” said PeaTos founder Nick Desai. “In just the first quarter, we gained 6000 new points of distribution and expanded upon our existing line of award-winning offerings with the launch of PeaTos Puffs in two new bold varieties. Now, as we expand into Sam’s Clubs nationwide, more consumers will be introduced to the same classic fun, tasty promise of the classic snacks that America grew up on but without all the scary artificial ingredients and with the benefit of better-for-you plant-based nutrition.”
PeaTos replaces the traditional corn base with nutrient-dense peas for a unique snack experience that offers two times the protein and three times the fiber of the leading salty snack counterparts but with nothing artificial and now with no dairy.
PeaTos employs proprietary methodology to replicate the dairy experience using only 100 percent plant-based ingredients. The result is an all-plant based, vegan snack that offers the taste and sensory experience of America’s favorite snacks.
PeaTos won VegNews’ “Best of” award at Expo West 2022, the world’s largest trade show for natural living. “Our entire VegNews team was blown away by the new 100 percent vegan offerings from PeaTos,” said associate editor Jocelyn Martinez. “It’s our latest obsession!”
In April 2023, PeaTos introduced PeaTos Puffs in two new flavor varieties: Crunchy Fiery Lime Puffs and Crunchy Cheese-less Puffs. PeaTos 100 percent plant-based, non-GMO certified offerings also include Crunchy Onion Rings; Crunchy No-Cheese Curls; Crunchy Fiery Curls; and Crunchy Pizza Rings. The non-GMO Project Verified seal offers consumers independent, third-party assurance that best practices have been followed to avoid the inclusion of genetically modified organisms.
