Royal Hawaiian Orchards Expands Portfolio of Snacks with New Single Serve Pouch

HILO, Hawaii – Sept. 19, 2016 – Royal Hawaiian Macadamia Nut, Inc., pioneer of delicious macadamia nut-crafted foods and beverages, today announced the expansion of its snack portfolio with Royal Hawaiian Orchards™ Single Serve Macadamia Nut Pouches. Committed to sharing the amazing goodness and better-for-you health benefits of macadamias with nut lovers everywhere, the brand’s Single Serve Macadamia Nut Pouches are available in six flavors ranging from savory roasted to dark chocolate-covered. Gluten-free and Non-GMO Project Verified, the convenient grab-and-go pouches are now available at 7-Eleven® and other select convenience stores nationwide, giving busy snackers a better alternative to traditional “pump-and-munch” offerings.

unspecified“Our love for the amazingly delicious and nutritious macadamia nut runs deep, as does our vision to make enjoying them more accessible to all people – whether that’s at breakfast with our macadamia nut milks, at snack time with our fruit & nut crunches, or on-the-go with our new single serve pouches,” said Scott Wallace, president of Royal Hawaiian Macadamia Nut. “As the only brand making the nutritiously-rich benefits of macadamia nuts widely available through foods in multiple aisles of the grocery store, our hope is that shoppers will start to see these powerful little nuts have so much more to offer than being a gift from a tropical vacation. We’re honored to be one of the first on-the-go macadamia nut offerings for the convenience channel, and are thrilled that leaders in this space like 7-Eleven recognize the benefit of diversifying their snack offering with better-for-you options like ours that still knock it out of the park on taste.”

Made with buttery-rich macadamias grown in the lava-rich soil of Hawaii, Royal Hawaiian Orchards Single Serve Macadamia Nut Pouches come in three roasted flavors that are lightly seasoned and spiced, including Sea Salt, Hawaiian BBQand Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper. Made with real, quality ingredients, the roasted macadamias are a healthier snacking alternative to standard convenience store options like chips and pretzels. For those seeking a better-for-you indulgence, the Single Serve Pouches are also offered in three fruit-infused dark chocolate-covered varieties, including Dark Chocolate Blueberry Acai, Dark Chocolate Blackberry Goji and Dark Chocolate Pomegranate Mango. Each individually portioned, travel-size snack retails for $1.05/1.25 oz. pouch.

A great source of energy, macadamia nuts assert health benefits including being low in cholesterol. They are also ideal for those with gluten sensitivity, Celiac Disease, or who follow paleo, vegan, vegetarian and plant-based diets. Studies show that the nutritional make-up of macadamia nuts may help support heart health, and management of high cholesterol/blood pressure, weight, diabetes and more.

Royal Hawaiian Orchards Single Serve Macadamia Nut Pouches join the brand’s rapidly growing portfolio of diverse macadamia-based foods and beverages, including new All-Natural Creamy Macadamia Butter, Dark Chocolate Macadamia Spread, Macadamia Milks, Roasted Macadamias, Dark Chocolate Covered Macadamias and Fruit & Macadamia Crunches.
