Tessemae’s Expands Organic Condiments in More Stores
Tessemae’s, a leader in the fresh salad dressing category, is no stranger to condiments. Tessemae’s has been manufacturing condiments in their existing line since 2013.
Tessemae’s has developed a full line of organic condiments to be merchandised in the produce department alongside the current salad dressing line up. The portfolio includes buffalo sauces, mayonnaise, mustards, BBQ sauce and ketchup. The organic Ketchup and organic BBQ sauce are vegan and contain zero added sugars – a differentiator in an otherwise saturated market. These products are championed by diabetics, the paleo community and the Whole30 community. After being introduced on Tessemaes.com, ketchup and BBQ sauce quickly rocketed to the top to become the #1 and #2 sellers, proving the demand for low sugar or no sugar added condiments in the marketplace.
Tessemae’s will be launching their condiment line in multiple Kroger divisions this month. Ketchup, BBQ, and Mayo will be available to consumers next to the current dressing line in the refrigerated produce section. Target and Meijer will continue to carry Tessemae’s condiments and the Company has an aggressive roll-out plan with other key retail partners for the balance of the year.
Tessemae’s continues to field demand for its organic Mayo – one of very few options widely available on shelves that is sugar free. The spread is made with high quality ingredients including cage-free eggs, fresh lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and sea salt. Organic mayo follows organic ketchup and BBQ as the third best seller on Tessemaes.com.
“Our Mayo is made just as it should be, using the same real ingredients you’d use to make it at home. Alternate and vegan mayos have been getting a lot of attention lately, and our mayo deserves to share the spotlight. It is the first truly clean label refrigerated mayonnaise: free of gums, sugar and unnecessary preservatives. The result? It’s also the best tasting mayo on the market,” says EVP of R&D for Tessemae’s, Kristen Dittami.
While Tessemae’s is on the fast track for tremendous growth this year, they stand by their original mission: to simplify food and amplify life. They will not be changing formulas or adding ingredients that don’t belong for the sake of cutting costs or pleasing investors.
