BROOKLYN, NY - Welcome to the era of fresh vegetables! Between plant-based initiatives and increasing demand for health-forward food, vegetables are being reinvented to become a consumer favorite across the board. Ark Foods recently announced plans to expand its classic line of Veggie Bowls with four new flavors: Buffalo Cauli Mac, General Tso's Cauli, Alfredo Veggie Spaghetti, and Sesame Veggie Noodles. This launch will expand its best-selling category and cement Ark Foods’ foothold in the plant-based movement. To accommodate the brand’s rapid growth, Ark Foods is also opening a new 15,000-square-foot production facility in New Jersey.

"Our Veggie Bowl line takes crowd-pleasing veggies, such as cauliflower or rutabaga, and pairs them with plant-based sauces to create an indulgent, accessible, and healthy eating experience,” said Noah Robbins, Founder and CEO. "Vegetables are universal. This launch strengthens our mission to bring unique veggies to the masses."

According to a press release, the microwavable Veggie Bowls combine plant-based, housemade sauces with fan-favorite cauliflower florets or rutabaga noodles. Ark Foods Veggie Bowls feature clean, vegan sauces made from savory and wholesome ingredients such as cashew and butternut. These refrigerated bowls are designed to be a perfect side dish, snack, or light meal. The new bowls will be available in Midwest, Northeast, and North Atlantic Whole Foods Markets and Kings Food Markets locations with additional retailers to follow.

The company was founded in 2013 by Noah Robbins with a mission to transform agriculture in America. The brand started with shishito peppers and has grown to over 15+ SKUs for both wholesale and retail, including Veggie Bowls, Squash Snack Packs, Shishito Pepper Party Packs, and unique wholesale produce.
