Founded in 2008, Benjoy was developed by Michelle Daniells who discovered a gap in the market while looking for healthy snack food for her own son. Michelle built a team of credible experts in children’s nutrition and health, nutrition science and food science to help her develop a range of innovative food products. The result is the first range of healthier children’s snack food to offer parents both the convenience that comes with the Munchcup™ less-mess packaging and the peace of mind that comes with knowing all of the food is made from 100% natural ingredients with optimum, age-appropriate nutritional value.
Significant increase in listings among multiples gives Benjoy a stronger in store brand presence
Hampshire, UK 20th June 2011: Benjoy, the children’s food company, today announce an increase in distribution with National retailers Morrisons and Waitrose. In addition, Boots online will be stocking the Benjoy range and Ocado is increasing the range available.
Benjoy launched into retail in November 2010 with a new range of healthy snacks for young children packaged in the Munchcup® the first anti-spill, “less mess” packaging of its kind anywhere in the world. Distribution was increased in December to include online retailers and this second increase represents the growing popularity of the range.
Each of the Benjoy foods offers age-appropriate nutritional values by incorporating 100% natural ingredients with essential nutrients commonly lacking in young children’s diets, whilst being low in salt and sugar and containing no refined sugar. The range includes freeze dried fruit slices, wholesome multigrain bites, multigrain munchers and mini vegetable crisps.
Benjoy’s founder Michelle Daniells used her experiences as a mother to develop the unique range of nutritious and convenient snack foods for toddlers and pre-schoolers. After combining efforts with the expertise of the current team including a clinical dietician, a nutritionist, a food technologist and a panel of mums, Benjoy Nutrition was born.
Benjoy is available at selected Morrisons and Waitrose stores and online from Amazon, Boots Online, Kiddicare, Naturally Good Food, Naturebotts, Ocado and Tree of Life. Recommended retail prices (for a multi pack of 4) range from £2.49 for the Multigrain Bites to £2.69 for the Crunchy Grape and Strawberry Slices. The range can be viewed at http://www.benjoy.co.uk/
