NightFood Developing Gluten-Free Snacks to Serve Expanding Market Segment

/EINPresswire.com/ -- TARRYTOWN, NY--(Marketwired - Aug 17, 2017) - NightFood Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: NGTF), a fully reporting "better-for-you" snack company, today announced that gluten-free versions of NightFood products are currently being developed.

In addition to people who are allergic or intolerant to gluten in foods, there is a growing segment of the consumer population that is simply choosing to avoid gluten for various reasons.

"We've been evaluating our manufacturing options for the future, and part of that is the evolution of our ingredient list and nutritional profiles as we expand our product lines and offerings," explained Peter Leighton, CMO of NightFood. "Any changes or improvements that can be made are being considered, as long as they don't run contrary to our core brand promise of nighttime appropriate and sleep-friendly snacking."

The company believes that moving to gluten-free products can contribute to an increase in sales, as many consumers will not consume products that contain gluten.

"Our current products are very well received by consumers, as can be seen in reviews on Amazon and Facebook. We're proud that we've amassed so many positive reviews in only two months of Amazon sales," commented CEO Sean Folkson. "I think the single most common complaint we get is that the bars are note gluten-free. Approximately 70% of American adults snack regularly at night, and a significant portion of those 170 million people live gluten-free lives."

Folkson continued, "Whatever other improvements we may make to our current formulations with guidance from our scientific advisory board, it's great to know that we can continue to use oats and some other key NightFood ingredients while delivering a gluten-free product."

The Company expects the initial manufacturing run of gluten-free NightFood bars to occur sometime during the fourth quarter of calendar 2017 in both current popular flavors (Cookies n' Dreams and Midnight Chocolate Crunch). In addition, the Company has plans to introduce two new flavors to the marketplace, also before the end of 2017.
