Ark Foods Expands Distribution for Line of Clean Label Salads

Clean Label Salads Ark Foods
April 8, 2021

Ark Foods' Clean Label Salads will debut on shelves at the following retailers across the country:
● Whole Foods Southwest (Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas)
● Giant Martin’s (Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia)
● King Kullen / Wild by Nature (New York)
● Winn-Dixie (Florida)
● Central Market (Texas)
● Giant Eagle and Market District (Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania)

“With this new group of spring launches, Ark Foods is leading exciting change in the produce aisle,” said Lindsay Belfatto, VP of Sales for Ark Foods. “When you think about a nutrient-dense, plant-based lunch, our Clean Label Salads will be an accessible option at the grocery store, especially as people return to the office. We’re eager to continue this momentum and bring the line to as many produce aisles as we can in 2021.”

Developed, tested, and brought to market entirely during the pandemic, the salad line seeks to bring awareness and accessibility to veggies rarely seen in store-bought salads, like watermelon radishes and golden beets, with a concise and pronounceable list of ingredients.

The plant-based dressings were inspired by some of the most popular dressings sought by consumers, including:
● Cashew Kale Caesar
● Crunchy Kale Ranch
● Ginger Sesame Greens
● Bright Pesto Greens
