- Kiju iced teas have been placed into both Walmart and Shoppers Drug Mart for the summer.
- Rolling Meadow has seen widespread natural food and independent distribution wins, mostly in Ontario
- Cedar has seen distribution wins across the Natural Food channel, where they had little previous exposure, as well as continued distribution wins within the Produce section of one of the largest grocery chains in Canada.
"Increased distribution across all our brands will help us continue to drive rapid organic growth as we fill the gaps and make our products available to a greater number of Canadian consumers. Our sales team have been enjoying great tailwinds as they place our products into more and more stores, and as our brands continue to evolve we are reinforcing our reputation for building some of the most innovative brands in the Natural Food world." says Matthew von Teichman, CEO of GreenSpace Brands. "Love Child in particular continues to evolve into one of the most dominant Organic food brands in Canada, representing the majority of the growth in the entire baby food category."
