On this episode, the CPG Week podcast team digs into the declines of two prominent plant-based brands before discussing the acquisitions of Mary’s Gone Crackers and Kate Farms. Next, the hosts highlight the latest celebrity to launch a coffee brand. (Maybe a hot sauce would have been more appropriate?).
Danone has agreed to acquire a majority stake in Kate Farms, makers of a range of plant-based nutrition products for both medical and retail channels.
The medical-grade meal replacement brand announced today the launch of a new line of plant-based Kids Nutrition drinks into 302 Target locations across the country, as well as online at Target.com, marking a major expansion outside of the medical channel and into mainstream retail.
