Udi's Announces Expansion of Frozen Food Category at Natural Products Expo East
New Premium, Gluten-Free Burritos and Skillet Meals Offer Fresh Approach to Frozen
BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Udi's Gluten Free is expanding its frozen offerings to include premium, gluten-free burritos and gourmet skillet meals at Natural Products Expo East in Baltimore.
While sales in the billion-dollar frozen food industry have declined by five percent, the gluten-free frozen category continues to explode, growing by more than 40 percent year-over-year as consumers' demand for high-quality, gluten-free food increases.
"Udi's is rooted in the entrepreneurial spirit," said Denise Sirovatka, vice president of marketing for Udi's. "We are always experimenting with product development to deliver on the Udi's promise of providing delicious gluten-free food."
