As Butter Sales Soar, Challenge Launches Line of Cream Cheese
Dublin, California (PRWEB) July 30, 2014 -- Challenge Butter, a leading supermarket brand with a 100-year history of selling quality butter products, today introduced four new cream cheese items as sales and distribution of its butter continue to grow exponentially.
In 2012, resources became available to move Challenge’s products eastward and since doing so, the company has grown rapidly, increasing its product distribution by more than 50 percent. Challenge has continued to innovate during this time of growth and has just introduced four new cream cheese items of the same caliber as its butter. Challenge Cream Cheese is all natural with no preservatives and is kosher certified.
The Challenge Cream Cheese line includes:
- Challenge Cream Cheese (available in 8 oz blocks with ARP of $2.49)
- Challenge Spreadable Cream Cheese (available in 8 oz. tub with ARP of $2.49)
- Challenge Nuefchatel Cream Cheese (available in 8 oz. tub with ARP of $2.49)
- Challenge Whipped Cream Cheese (available in 8 oz. tub with ARP of $2.49)
“With the rapid increase in demand for our butter over the past three years and expansion into new markets, we felt we had the resources and team in place to introduce a cream cheese that would stand up to the quality that we promise,” said Tim Anderson, SVP of retail and food service for Challenge Dairy Products, Inc. “We’ve applied the same dedication to the quality of our cream cheese and look forward to fans tasting the real difference our cream cheese offers.”
In 2013, Challenge introduced three spreadable butters: an Italian inspired Garlic and Herb Spreadable Butter, Cracked Pepper & Sea Salt Spreadable Butter and Challenge Spreadable Lite Butter which is a blend of olive and canola oils with Challenge Butter.
Challenge’s new cream cheeses are available in select Wal-Mart, Safeway, Raley’s, Kroger, Ralph’s, Albertson’s, Save Mart, lucky, Raleigh’s, HEB, Food Maxx, Tony’s and Bashas stores, among others. For a full list of retailers and more product information, visit http://www.challengedairy.com.
