Planet Based Foods Announces Pacific Northwest Expansion

Planet Based Foods Global Inc. has entered into a pair of definitive agreements with supermarket chains, Quality Food Centers (QFC) and Fred Meyer.

Consumers seeking Planet Based Foods’ nutritious plant-based alternatives will be able to find the company’s products across 56 QFC stores in Washington and Oregon, as well as 86 Fred Meyer stores throughout Washington, Oregon and Idaho. This announcement derives from Planet Based Foods’ Nov. 15, 2022, press release confirming the partnership with mainstream grocery distributor, Kroger. Both QFC and Fred Meyer are two subsidiaries of Kroger since their respective mergers in 1998. Details regarding the Kroger and Planet Based Foods announcement can be found here.

Braelyn Davis, Planet Based Foods CEO and co-Founder said, “The customer is always right, and they’re demanding more health-conscious food alternatives each and every day. We’re excited to grow our regional distribution in the Pacific Northwest and partner with these exemplary supermarket retailers to showcase our products. As for what’s most important for us right now, it would have to be keeping up with the demand for our products and sustaining our notable growth trajectory.”
