Hain's Garden Veggie Straws are making their way to Dollar General stores as part of the brand's initiative to expand availability and also make it easier for consumers to choose healthier snacks. The brand's better-for-you veggie-made straw snack is available now and will be on offer at more than 20,000 Dollar General locations in a Sea Salt flavor by the end of this month. The move by Hain's to support stock in Dollar General comes in response to consumer sentiment when it comes to seeking out healthier snacks that don't skimp on value or convenience.
Chief Customer Officer John Ozgopoyan commented on the Hain's Garden Veggie Straws arriving at Dollar General saying, "We know consumers are seeking products that are better-for-you without sacrificing taste, convenience or affordability. Our Garden Veggie Straws perfectly meet these needs, and we’re excited to bring them to Dollar General stores nationwide. This channel expansion exemplifies our mission to making healthier living more accessible and convenient, and we’re looking forward to the new opportunities it unlocks for us to reach and inspire even more consumers.”
