The expansion builds upon Bumble Bee Seafoods’ successful rollouts in 2022, which saw the introduction of wild-caught tuna pouches in Applewood Smoke and Mediterranean Herbs & Spices, along with Quick Catch Tuna Bowls in Southwest, Mediterranean, and Teriyaki flavor combinations.
In 2021, the company launched its Protein on the Run Kits, later recognized as a “Best New Snack Product” in 2022 by Progressive Grocer, with flavor choices including Zesty Lemon, Black Pepper, and Mild Jalapeno.
Bumble Bee Seafoods is now shipping the new products to retailers. Items marked with the MSC blue fish icon are sourced from an MSC-certified sustainable fishery, underlining the company’s commitment to sustainability.
