(NAFB.com) – Chobani is buying plant-based food maker Daily Harvest as the Greek yogurt giant expands its reach into ready-to-make meals. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Daily Harvest was founded a decade ago, becoming one of the first businesses to ship clean, nutritious food directly to customers’ doorsteps. Since then, the company has expanded its portfolio to include meals and snacks that are available online and in retail. Chobani said it aims to use its “world-class manufacturing, distribution, and retail expertise” to get Daily Harvest into more U.S. homes. “These two purpose-led brands are united by a shared vision: to make high-quality, delicious food made with real ingredients more accessible,” Chobani and Daily Harvest said in a statement. The purchase also gives Chobani a presence for the first time in the multi-billion frozen section of the grocery store, moving the brand beyond its long-time home in the dairy aisle.
