As a trade writer, if I had to name two categories that show exponential growth potential it would be the plant-based sector and e-commerce. Daiya Foods is of the same school of thought as the dairy-free cheese brand unveiled its new online store, allowing consumers to explore plant-based eating through this easily accessible e-commerce platform.
"We are thrilled to make it easier for people to access our entire line of plant-based foods from wherever and whenever they shop," said Dan Hua, Vice President of Marketing. "Popularity for plant-based foods continues to grow, and we aim to make all of our unique and award-winning products more readily available to consumers."
The online store will feature a line of dairy-, gluten-, and soy-free products that shoppers can conveniently order and have delivered right to their door, according to a press release. With the rise in direct-to-consumer platforms throughout the pandemic, Daiya is on track for further growth as it unveils this new launch.
In addition to being able to find Daiya's products at many major national retailers, they can now discover the company's full range of refrigerated, frozen, and shelf-stable foods in the online store. Available are:
