Held the 8th-11th at the Anaheim Convention Center, the Natural Products Expo West 2023 is the largest natural food and organic product trade show of the year, held in Anaheim, California annually with thousands upon thousands of brands showcased.
America’s #1 award-winning India-inspired yogurt which features Padma as brand partner, board advisor and culinary expert, has expanded its Lassi drinkable yogurt smoothie line with new grab-and-go bottles perfect for an everyday delicious probiotic rich refreshing and healthful beverage. DAH!’s new grab-and-go 7oz bottles come in flavors Alphonso Mango and Vanilla with Cardamom. DAH! recently announced this expansion nationwide at all Sprouts locations across the US.
DAH! owns leadership in the yogurt category, as America’s #1 India-style lassi and yogurt brand with distribution in leading natural and mass retailers nationwide. “India-style” is positioned to be the next great origin story in the yogurt category, offering retailers the chance to bring innovation to their set and excite consumers with an authentic and approachable brand story, with points of difference that result in a delicious product, great for digestive health and gluten free. The company has refined its point of differences, to include “India-style,” “slow-cultured” and “high probiotic – 15 billion live probiotics per serving” on all yogurts. “India-Style” and “Slow-Cultured” reflect the ancient Indian techniques of culturing yogurt at lower temperatures for longer times than most if not all modern-day yogurt brands.
Padma, an icon in the food industry, and as board advisor and brand partner, helps shape the company’s overall direction and lends her expertise in crafting and testing new products and flavors.
