Mush – The Ready-to-Eat Overnight Oats Brand – Launches Nationwide at Kroger

CHICAGO — MUSH – the brand known for making clean, plant-based, ready-to-eat overnight oats with less than eight wholesome ingredients, has announced a nationwide retail launch into 1,025 Kroger stores. The fan-favorite flavors including Blueberry, Vanilla, Dark Chocolate and Apple Cinnamon can be found in the refrigerated aisle in single serve five ounce cups. MUSH’s Kroger availability spans across the Midwest, Southeast and Southwest regions. This retail launch comes on the heels of the brand’s big expansion into the club channel in three regions of Costco Clubs, bringing MUSH’s retail footprint to nearly 11,000 stores. MUSH exists to heal human well-being by creating food products that are healthy, delicious, and satiating at an unbeatable price point.

With 46% of consumers wanting to eat healthier in 2022 and sales of refrigerated, ready-to-eat items increasing by 65% compared to last year, MUSH has become the leading brand in its category. The brand’s product line offers nostalgic flavor profiles that are nutrient-dense with protein and fiber. MUSH is made from a few simple ingredients and is dairy-free, gluten-free, and has no added sugar.

Having launched six years ago, after being inspired by CEO and Co-Founder Ashley Thompson’s favorite hack as a kid – cereal soaked overnight in milk – MUSH has grown rapidly. They continue to see significant growth, prioritizing a people-first approach and product quality. Compared to other leading food products in this category, MUSH uses premium ingredients, minimal processing and a special pasteurization technique to ensure nutrients are maximally absorbed. MUSH selected Kroger because of its reputation for valuing innovation, healthy foods and offering better-for-you products at an affordable price.

“Our product line of ready-to-eat oats is a brand new take on an old-fashioned favorite, and it’s here to stay,” said Ashley Thompson, CEO and Co-Founder of MUSH. “By expanding our retail footprint with Kroger, we can effect positive change in America at monumental scale, one cup of MUSH at a time.”

Blueberry, Vanilla, Dark Chocolate and Apple Cinnamon are available for $2.79 at Kroger stores as well as King Soopers, Fred Meyer, Ralph’s and QFC which fall under the Kroger parent-company. Coconut Coffee can be found at select locations. For more information on MUSH’s grocery store products and availability, visit eatmush.com/pages/store-locator.
