Niche Keto Growth Opportunity to expand keto-friendly snack placements given CORE Foods already launched a keto line in 2021. Target health-focused retailers, gluten-free and low-carb stores, and online platforms that cater to keto and low-carb audiences.

Seasonal Innovation Leverage CORE Foods seasonal launches like Organic Pumpkin Spice Oat Bar to pitch limited-edition seasonal ranges to retailers seeking fresh SKUs and to drive repeat purchases through store calendars and promotional windows.

Refrigerated Convenience Focus on retailers that prioritize refrigerated snack aisles and ready-to-eat energy bites, aligning with CORE’s refrigerated bar positioning to differentiate from shelf-stable competitors and support faster sell-through.

Digital & Direct Capitalize on existing tech stack and online presence to target DTC channels, wellness e-commerce platforms, and social commerce partnerships, enabling scalable test campaigns and direct customer feedback loops.

Small Team, Big Potential With a lean team, pursue pilot programs with boutique grocers, regional distributors, and specialty retailers to minimize risk while validating category growth and building case studies for larger national accounts.
