BRANDS TO WATCH
American Vinegar Works A standout in the artisan condiments world, American Vinegar Works masters slow‑fer - mented, barrel‑aged vinegars made from American ciders, beers, wines and rice wines — all hand‑bottled in a historic New England mill. Their product innovation signals a reinvention of vinegar from simple pantry staple to craft flavour‑tool. With growing recognition including a regional food award, they’re one to watch for specialty retailers.
BomBom Started in her tiny London Flat, Seji the founder, created BomBom to share the bold flavors of Korea with the home cook. BomBom delivers an authentic shortcut to Korean flavors, that are ready to use straight from the jar.
Dry Brew Dry Brew is an inventive food‑tech brand redefin - ing how coffee is consumed: their product is a chewable coffee “bite” that condenses a 6‑oz cup of real coffee into a portable chew — backed by a U.S.‑patented process. In the mobility‑first era (commuting, hiking, travel), Dry Brew’s no‑water, no‑brew format delivers caffeine neatly and quickly — giving it strong potential in impulse‑driven retail and alternative‑coffee channels.
