Applegate Farms Expands Protein Portfolio Across Deli, Refrigerated & Breakfast

Innovation ranges from ready-to-heat proteins, flavor-forward lunchmeats, and new additions to the brand’s bacon portfolio.
Applegate, the nation's leading natural and organic meat brand, announced the expansion of its portfolio through seven new products designed to bring greater convenience, flavor, and versatility to everyday meals. Spanning deli, refrigerated, and breakfast categories, the new offerings reflect Applegate's continued commitment to delivering protein options made with simple, recognizable ingredients and responsibly raised1 meat.
Applegate has started rolling out the new products across key retailers, including Whole Foods Market, Sprouts Farmers Market, Publix, Stop & Shop and Giant, Gelson's Market, and others, with additional distribution. The innovation ranges from ready-to-heat proteins, flavor-forward lunchmeats, and new additions to the brand's bacon portfolio. The company is also introducing larger pack sizes of select products to better meet evolving household needs.
"For us, innovation and new product development starts with our standards," said Joseph O'Connor, president of Applegate. "We're always asking how we can make it easier for people to enjoy food that aligns with their values — from ingredient transparency to how that food is sourced and produced. By combining the benefits of taste and convenience with those longstanding standards, we aim to continue to redefine what consumers can expect from Applegate."
