BeeFree’s flagship product, a plant-based grain-less snack mix, will be sampled across Costcos in Indianapolis throughout February.
This women-owned business boasts a small but mighty list of whole-food ingredients in its products. Each Warrior Snack Mix is gluten free with no soy, refined sugar, or trans-fat.
“The quality of ingredients we use is absolutely essential,” said BeeFree founder and CEO Jennifer Wiese. “We want people to see our nutritional label and know exactly what they’re getting.”
Wiese identifies as a “mom on a mission” working to help support her son with autism and deeply committed to fostering an inclusive workplace at BeeFree. Their staff includes paid and intern positions set aside specifically for adults with autism looking for job experience. Wiese is working with the city of Noblesville to create a curriculum to make inclusive hiring easier for other community businesses.
Wiese and her team sampled Warrior Snack Mix during Noblesville’s Costco grand opening this past November, ending the week as the No. 1-sold item in the snacks category. Throughout February, Warrior Snack Mix is being sampled and sold at all of the Indianapolis Costco locations as a Costco Roadshow.
