Catalina Snacks® Enters Granola Category with Bold New Protein-Packed Line

INDIANAPOLIS, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Catalina Snacks®, a leading innovator redefining better-for-you snacks and cereals, is breaking into the granola aisle with the debut of Catalina Crunch® Protein Granola. This deliciously crunchy, lower-sugar granola is made to satisfy everyday cravings—whether you're fueling up for breakfast or need a snack on-the-go. Catalina Crunch's new Protein Granola is rolling out now and will be available by the end of the year at Walmart, Publix, Amazon, Target, Sprouts, Hy-Vee, ShopRite, King Soopers, Harris Teeter, Stop & Shop, Hannaford, and online at catalinacrunch.com.

Packed with 13g of protein, 1–2g of sugar, and an excellent source of fiber in every serving, Catalina Crunch Protein Granola delivers amazing taste without the sugar crash. With the brand's Love Every Bite Guarantee, consumers can try Protein Granola with confidence.

Catalina Crunch's Protein Granola comes in three delicious flavors:

• Honey Cashew - bursting with golden honey flavor and real cashews for a sweet, crave-worthy crunch in every bite.
• Peanut Butter - packed with real peanuts and creamy peanut butter for a bold, nutty crunch you'll love.
• Vanilla Almond - infused with warm vanilla flavor and real almonds for a smooth, subtly sweet crunch.

Made with carefully selected, wholesome ingredients like real nuts, gluten-free oat, soy, and rice crisps, and fan-favorite Catalina Crunch Cereal, each crunchy bite delivers on the brand's promise of providing nutritious snacks without sacrificing delicious flavor.

"We created this Protein Granola to fill a real gap, as many breakfast and snack options are either loaded with sugar or lacking in substance," said Sam Martin, Chief Revenue & Marketing Officer at Catalina Snacks. "Our Protein Granola gives consumers what they've been asking for - real nutrition, great taste and satisfying crunch, with none of the compromises. And of course, it delivers on taste—because ultimately, if it doesn't taste good, nothing else matters."

The launch comes as Catalina Crunch® continues to see explosive growth across the board, building on the momentum of its protein cereal and snack mix, now stocked in over 28,000 stores nationwide. As demand grows for options lower in sugar and high in protein, Catalina Crunch is cementing its place as the go-to brand for better-for-you pantry staples.
