The event will highlight the latest in natural and organic food and drink, eco-friendly beauty, and household items, as well as supplements and ingredients.

Mr. Jim Kras, Chief Executive Officer of Edible Garden, commented, "We are excited to be back at EXPO WEST and showcase the Pulp line of sustainable gourmet sauces and chili-based products at EXPO WEST® 2024. The product line features a variety of hot sauces including Hungarian Wax Hot Sauce, Poblano Serrano Jalapeno Hot Sauce, Fresno Chili Hot Sauce, Habanero Carrot Hot Sauce, as well as Salsa Macha, Chili Crisp, and Chili Oil. These products were first introduced at last year’s EXPO WEST® 2023 and have since been made available at retail outlets such as Target, Whole Foods, Morton Williams, Dierbergs Markets, and Woodman’s Market. The Company also launched an e-commerce platform, pulpflavors.com, earlier this year, focusing on making these products accessible to customers throughout the United States. As a result, consumers nationwide who value flavorful, sustainable, and USDA Organic fermented products are now able to directly buy our Pulp sustainable sauces and personally experience their unique taste.”

“Research and Markets forecasts that the global sauces and condiments market will expand from $172.8 billion in 2021 to $240.7 billion by 2028. Pulp appeals to consumers looking for bold flavors, sustainability, and organic fermentation, embodied by its slogan "Bland to Bold." Building on Pulp's success over the past year, there are plans to extend its retail presence across the Company’s distribution network of more than 5,000 retail locations. Please stop by the Edible Garden booth, #5274, located in Hall E (Natural & Specialty Foods) to sample these gourmet sauces, discover Edible Garden’s new 'Squeezables' line of squeezable herbs, and even meet Pulpy, the Pulp mascot, for a photo opportunity.”
