SNAX-Sational Brands, in collaboration with Chiquita, unveiled Chiquita Plantain Chips, an addition to the snack aisle that brings the authentic taste of Ecuador to grocery aisles.

SNAX-Sational’s new Chiquita Plantain Chips go from harvest at the farm to bag in just 24 hours, locking in exceptional freshness, crunch and flavor. Each batch starts with hand-selected plantains, ensuring premium quality and consistency.

The chips will be available in five crave-worthy flavors: Chile Limón, Garlic, Scoops with Sea Salt, Original and Sweet. Each variety is made with only three to four simple, recognizable ingredients. Naturally gluten-free and vegan-friendly, each 8oz bag (SRP $4.99) offers a clean-label snacking experience that is both satisfying and wholesome.

Plantain chips continue to grow as one of the most dynamic categories in the snack industry. They combine global flavor appeal, better-for-you snacking, and shareable dip-ready formats. Chiquita Plantain Chips bring consumers a fresh, elevated take to this staple.

Consumers can find Chiquita Plantain Chips at national and regional supermarket chains and online beginning January 2026.
