Produces dairy-free creamers and plant milks

Overview

Nutpods produces dairy-free coffee creamers, oat milks, and cold brew beverages. Its flagship product is unsweetened almond-coconut creamer blends that are free from carrageenan, soy, and artificial ingredients, offered in several flavors and formats including oat-based options. The creamer works by blending almonds with coconut cream to create a dairy-free option for coffee, and the line has expanded to barista blends and cold brews sold through 15,000+ U.S. retailers and online channels. Nutpods differentiates itself with a clean-label approach (certified vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO, kosher) and by using an omnichannel distribution model to reach mainstream retailers and online shoppers with accessible plant-based products.
