HOPE Foods is recognized for creative innovation and great taste. This month, the ever growing natural foods company has received two awards.

1. Hope was named a Colorado Company to Watch, which evaluates the innovation and business practices of growing Colorado companies, in addition to the products and services these companies offer.
2. HOPE Foods’ Hope To Go Dark Chocolate Crackers has been recognized as a “Best Bite” by Delicious Living. The annual awards feature the top natural, organic, and healthy living packaged food and beverage products available on store shelves.

Colorado Companies to Watch honors HOPE Foods as one of the state’s fastest growing and most innovative second stage companies that are developing valuable products and services, creating quality jobs, enriching communities, and creating new industries throughout Colorado. “We are pleased to recognize HOPE Foods for their outstanding contribution in fueling the economic fire of Colorado. Thank you,” says David Tolson, Colorado Companies to Watch Board Chairman.

It’s no surprise that a company recognized for its innovative business processes would also be recognized for making a delicious, innovative product. When it comes to packaged natural foods, Hope Foods is the full package.

Simply Delicious gave a nod to HOPE Food’s Hope To Go Dark Chocolate and Crackers as the “Best Allergen-Free Snack” available in the natural foods category right now. For this easy and delicious snack, Hope paired it’s creamy chocolate spread with it’s gluten-free Sweet Oat specialty crackers, making a snack with plenty of indulgence and enough nutrition to leave you feeling satisfied—and for longer. This low-glycemic index snack has considerably less sugar, fat, and calories than other dessert spreads, measuring less than 1/4 the sugar, fat, and calories of its counterparts. Even better, it lacks any scary ingredients and is certified organic and non-GMO.

With these awards, HOPE Foods continues to take its place among the swelling ranks of booming natural foods companies based out of the state of Colorado.

“We are beyond thrilled to be honored as a Colorado Company to Watch, and for our Chocolate Hope To Go to be recognized as a Best Bite by Delicious Living. Both of these awards are looking for the things that we strive for and consider the very integrity and character of our business practices and our products. We are so pleased that they found qualities such as innovation, drive, excellence, clean, nutritious, and delicious to be indicative of Hope,” says HOPE Foods president, Robbie Rech.
