BranchOut Food (NASDAQ: BOF) has reinvigorated its market with news of increased production, improving revenue and profitability. The stock is up 200% from its 2024 lows and still has solid upside ahead of it, potentially gaining another 1,000% or more. The news cycle reveals that management is executing its plans well and the product is resonating with consumers. The company produces a range of dehydrated fruits and vegetables for snacking and ingredient purposes. Customers range from end consumers to major food manufacturers, and the list goes on. Popular products include crispy avocado slices, pineapple chips, pepper crunches and Brussels sprout snacks.
Among the critical details is the company’s established and strengthened position with the “largest membership club in the country,” which Google (NASDAQ:) will tell you is Costco (NASDAQ:). Costco is increasing its orders sequentially, leading the company to issue strong guidance for the first half of the year. The company projects revenue to reach $9 million, representing significant growth but a tiny amount compared to the estimated billions in value for the dried foods industry.
Estimates vary, but in general, the global dehydrated food industry is worth between $50 billion and more than $350 billion per year. BranchOut is well positioned to take a share of this market and can gain a significant foothold due to the diversity of its offerings and revenue streams. It can deepen its penetration of Costco aisles through deals with producers like Taylor Farms and expand to other major grocery chains, including Walmart (NYSE:NYSE:) and Kroger (NYSE:NYSE:).
Costco isn’t the only national player turning to BranchOut. Family-owned Taylor Farms, the nation’s largest salad kit manufacturer, began using BranchOut with an initial order of crunchy cherry tomatoes. The deal is worth $175,000 and could easily reach into the millions if Taylor Farms uses additional items.
