Steven Kovach, Promotions & Merchandising Advisory Specialist

Louisville Vegan Jerky Co Maple Bacon 

Non-GMO Verified, Gluten Free, Plant Based, and Vegan Certified 

"Louisville Vegan Jerky Co is my go-to travel snack when visiting member stores, particularly the maple bacon flavor. It has a satisfying, chewy texture that mimics traditional jerky, making it great for non-vegans, like me. LVJC is an independently run, family-owned business, perfect for any INFRA store!" 

Available in the Following KeHe DCs: 12, 16, 19, 25, 27, 33, and 41 

Hailey Craig, Events & Education Specialist 

Good Culture Organic Whole Milk Cottage Cheese

Organic Certified, B Corp

 

"Good Culture cottage cheese is the most repurchased item in my fridge! The Organic Whole Milk version is my favorite, as it is extra creamy and delicious, with smaller curds so you avoid the typical cottage cheese texture. I add this stuff to everything - from my scrambled eggs in the morning to pasta sauces for dinner, this is an incredibly versatile staple in the kitchen that adds a whopping 14 grams of protein per serving." 

Available in the Following KeHe DCs: 1, 19, 25, 27, and 41

Recess Mood Strawberry Rose

Made with Organic ingredients

"I first encountered Recess Mood at a KeHE Summer Show. Sparkling water has been a go-to refreshment for me whenever I want something bubbly and this had the added bonus of being a functional beverage with magnesium, something that I am chronically low on. The strawberry rose flavor appealed to my tendency to love "weird" flavors. It was a great choice and is now my first pick when I feel the need to be relaxed while still being alert. Whenever I need to navigate heavy traffic while on the road, I grab one!"

Austin Hinkle, Associate Category Manager

HiBar Natural Deodorant 

Vegan Certified and Plastic-Free Packaging

 

"I have always been picky when it comes to natural body care products, especially deodorants, and have really tried everything under the sun. HiBar is truly raising the bar on clean ingredients that actually work (and last) and wrapping it up in a completely plastic-free package. It’s one of those rare brands that checks all the boxes for me, and I cannot recommend it enough!"

Available in the Following KeHe DCs: expanded availability with January KeHE Seed Vendor
