Berlin, February 13th, 2019 – LPP Lotao GmbH, provider of Asian delicatessen specialties in organic quality, is once again represented at BIOFACH with exciting new products this year. In addition to the tried and tested Lotao rice specialties, the company presents innovative new creations with jackfruit under its own brand “Lotao Green”. “After intensive research with the “miracle fruit”, we are pleased to be able to present new products for the organic trade in the convenience food, snack food and fresh food segments,” explains Stefan Fak, Managing Director at Lotao. “With our Lotao Green line, we are expanding the “meatless” portfolio and offering attractive alternatives for demanding customers in the organic segment and in the area of vegan products,” says Fak.
The jackfruit food trend
When it comes to meat substitutes, jackfruit is considered the new discovery in the food segment. When unripe, the largest tree fruit in the world can hardly be distinguished from poultry meat in terms of consistency and texture and, thanks to its good nutritional values, is ideal for a low-calorie diet. Lotao sources the jackfruit from 100 percent organic farming in Indian farmer cooperatives, where it is harvested by hand and, after removing the peel, is processed into pieces and sent in portions.The vegan snack for in between – “Crispy Jack” jackfruit chips
Lotao Green “Crispy Jack” is now available in 45 gram packaging in well-stocked organic and grocery stores or via the Lotao online shop at a price of EUR 2.99 each (RRP).
Meatless innovation in the fresh food aisle – the Lotao Green salads
Lotao “Jackfruit Flying Jack” and “Jackfruit Spicy Jack” are the new products on the fresh produce shelf in 2019.
