Tell us a bit about your company
Kooky is a female-led, purpose driven exotic dried fruit brand, 100% fruit, vegan, gluten-free, on a mission to “sexy up” the category with new tropical flavours (9 flavours of which 4 are unique to Kooky such as mangosteen, baby pineapple, durian or chewy banana) and innovative textures (crunchy freeze dried or chewy gently dried).
Kooky is the ONLY British dried fruit brand which is 1) 100% free from top 14 allergens 2) certified B Corp and 3) with the highest number of awards, incl. Quality Food Awards, Great Taste Awards or Lunch Innovation Challenge Award!
Aline created Kooky because of her passion for exotic fruit, esp. mangosteen, her favourite fruit of all. She wanted to introduce them to the Western markets, make them more sustainable, more available and most importantly more affordable compared to the fresh fruit!
Tell us about your latest product(s), promotions or launches visitors can hope to see on your stand
Our latest launch was our freeze dried pineapple. Loyal to the brand, we are also using a premium fruit variety, Baby Queen Pineapple, with a sweet and tangy flavour, 100% fruit, absolutely nothing added, vegan, gluten-free and free from top 14 allergens.
Crunchy and very addictive, you have to try them, there is nothing like it!
Why is exhibiting at lunch! an unmissable opportunity for you?
This is our second year exhibiting at lunch! We met many buyers last year, esp. Tiktok and To Go Group. We believe that lunch! is giving us a unique opportunity to introduce our range to the food service sector and connect with people in the industry.
