Vejii Signs Agreement to Distribute Franklin Farms™ Plant-Based Meats on ShopVejii.com
Franklin Farms full line of plant-based meat products including its newly launched soy-free, low-fat, and allergen-free chickpea tofu
VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Vejii Holdings Ltd., (CSE: VEJI) ("Vejii" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that Franklin Farms' unique line of plant-based meat products will be launching on ShopVejii.com in the US this January.
Franklin Farms™, a division of Keystone Natural Holdings, is known for its extensive portfolio of plant-based protein options including plant-based burgers, seitan, tofu, tempeh, fusion tofu and a newly launched chickpea tofu. The brand aims to be a one-stop-shop for plant-based protein options.
"Franklin Farms builds trust with our customers through our focus on ingredients, experience, and convenience - or farm, flavor and function, as we like to say," said Cindy Wong, Vice President of Sales, Franklin Farms. "Our new line of tofu made from chickpeas offers consumers a soy-free option that is low-fat and allergen-free. Franklin Farms is excited to partner with Vejji as there is a high-demand for online shopping for our consumer base. We are excited that consumers will have a very convenient way to access our great-tasting meatless options."
"Online shopping has become a key part of so many consumers' routines after the COVID-19 pandemic, and now, with new COVID variants continuing to emerge - online grocery options are likely to continue to hold strong and even grow in popularity, with our nationwide distribution, and ability to deliver items contact-free, cold packed within 2-3 days, we are proud to be able to support large brands like Franklin Farms with their online strategy during this time of transition," said Kory Zelickson, CEO of Vejii Holdings. "Adding further selection for our customers, and expanding one of the best selling categories on our site with a brand such as Franklin Farms is an exciting opportunity for our company. With US Ecommerce grocery sales expected to reach over $100 billion dollars in the coming years, Vejji is well positioned to capitalize on this market opportunity."
The Vejii marketplace was built for rapid scale allowing brands to reach national exposure utilizing Vejii's existing infrastructure of data, tech, marketing and logistics. Recent data show more shoppers are opting for plant-based foods during the pandemic, and sales of meat alternatives are expected to accelerate as the nation faces temporarily tighter supplies of meat, dairy, and eggs.
