Catalina Snacks, known for its better-for-you cereals and snacks, has entered the granola aisle with the launch of Protein Granola. Rolling out now and expected to be in stores by year-end, the crunchy, lower-sugar blend will be available at retailers including Walmart, Publix, Target, Sprouts, Hy-Vee, ShopRite, King Soopers, Harris Teeter, Stop & Shop, Hannaford, and online at catalinacrunch.com.
Each serving of Protein Granola delivers 13 grams of protein, between 1 and 2 grams of sugar, and a substantial source of fiber. The line launches in three flavors—Honey Cashew, Peanut Butter, and Vanilla Almond—each featuring real nuts and infused with honey, peanut butter, or vanilla for a satisfying crunch without a sugar crash.
The granola is crafted from gluten-free oats, soy and rice crisps, and the brand’s signature cereal pieces. Catalina Snacks’ Love Every Bite Guarantee backs the product, allowing consumers to try the granola with confidence in both taste and nutrition.
“Many breakfast and snack options are either loaded with sugar or lacking in substance,” said Sam Martin, chief revenue and marketing officer at Catalina Snacks. “Our Protein Granola gives consumers what they’ve been asking for—real nutrition, great taste, and satisfying crunch, with none of the compromises.”
The launch follows Catalina Crunch’s rapid expansion, which now sees its cereal and snack mix stocked in over 28,000 stores nationwide. As demand rises for high-protein, lower-sugar pantry staples, the new granola line cements the brand’s position as a go-to choice for health-minded shoppers.
