Plant Based Protein Brand Ozo Enters Retail, eCommerce Marketplace
New plant based proteins are a proprietary blend of pea and rice protein fermented by shiitake mushrooms
Colorado-based Planterra Foods is making its debut this month in retail outlets and direct-to-consumer eCommerce with its introductory line of OZO™. Consumers looking for a new plant based protein can take a bite of OZO™ Burgers (two-4oz patties), Ground (12oz), and Mexican-Seasoned Ground (12oz) just in time for summer grilling and new recipe ideas. Made with transparent, straightforward and no artificial ingredients, the OZO™ protein offerings are certified vegan by BeVeg and non-GMO.
Powered by an exclusive proprietary blend of pea and rice protein fermented by shiitake mushrooms, all of the new OZO™ products are an excellent source of protein (with up to 22g per serving). They contain no cholesterol and less calories, fat and saturated fat than 80% lean ground beef, as well as other leading plant- based protein brands currently in the market. OZO™ features a high-quality pea protein that is a great source of iron, and has been known to aid in muscle growth, weight loss and heart health. The Planterra team is also passionate about making a positive impact on the planet and environment, and the OZO™ product line uses recyclable trays and cartons to store products, and plant based ink on all of its packaging.
