This plant-based food brand is bringing some serious heat to the sector. After receiving a string of awards throughout 2024, let’s see where this innovator is turning heads.
But first, let’s get into who this company is. Konscious Foods offers an impressive lineup of plant-based sushi rolls, onigiri, smoked salmon, and poke bowls that are crafted with high-quality, clean ingredients such as konjac plant; vegetables like cucumber, avocado, tomato, and carrot; whole grains like sushi rice, Jasberry™ rice and organic red quinoa, pea fiber, and legumes.
According to a press release, Konscious Foods made its United States debut in 2023 as a brand on a mission to bring sustainable, plant-based food products to market.
"Konscious Foods has quickly risen to the forefront of the plant-based food movement since launching at Expo West last year going from a standstill to being available at over 4,500 locations nationwide. We are excited to further expand the delicious, nutritious options consumers can try," said Konscious Foods President and Founder Yves Potvin. "We have applied our learnings from creating sushi, onigiri, and poke to now add this line of new and creative options that can help people incorporate more vegetables into their diet without sacrificing flavor. We know the barriers to entry for plant-based food are taste, texture, price, and convenience. Our ongoing mission at Konscious Foods is to make eating our foods an easy choice, whether someone is vegan, plant-curious, or just interested in trying something new. We believe the future of food is better-for-you, better-for-the-world options."
