Greenridge, the Chicago-based brand (formerly Greenridge Farm) specializing in all-natural uncured meat sticks, deli meats, sausages, cheeses, and condiments made a splash this year at NACS, the National Association of Convenience Stores’ annual show. The event, which took place in Atlanta, Georgia from October 4-6, 2023, brings together thousands of major industry players across convenience stores and fuel retailing.
As new exhibitors, Greenridge sampled thousands of their new C-store friendly all-natural meat snack sticks, available in four flavors including the brand-new Italian Style Grass Fed Beef and Buffalo Chicken, in addition to their popular Classic Beef and Jalapeño & Cheddar Grass Fed Beef Sticks. Retailers, distributors, exhibitors, and guests enjoyed all four snack sticks, which are part of the brand’s larger Naturals line of meat products that have zero sugar, are low sodium, free of fillers, MSG, gluten, and soy, with no added nitrates, nitrites, phosphates, and artificial colors or flavorings. Each flavor was displayed in a new 1 oz stick format, across multiple snack pack options including a one-pack, two-pack, and four-pack, all in new packaging following the company’s recent rebrand.
“We were thrilled to share our newest creations as first-time exhibitors this year at NACS. Sampling and receiving feedback on our new flavors across our beef and chicken categories in convenient on-the-go sizing options make us excited for next year as we continue to redefine what natural meat can be in the c-store space”, notes Mike Shannon, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
