Casey's and Lola's partner for own brand spicy snacks
Casey’s, the Iowa-based convenience chain, is continuing to grow its private label collection. The latest items to the own brand collection are a collaboration with Lola’s Fine Hot Sauce, and include jalapeño peanuts, jalapeño cashews and jalapeño pretzels.
The new Casey’s snacks featuring Lola’s flavor are available at over 2,400 Casey’s locations across 16 states now. Casey’s is the third-largest convenience store chain and fifth-largest pizza chain in the US, and expects to add approximately 225 store locations during fiscal 2022.
“Our partnership with Casey’s means a lot to our small, family-owned business,” said Taufeek Shah, founder and CEO of Lola’s. “Our generational family recipe hot sauce has the perfect flavor with just the right amount of heat that the Casey’s guests are looking for and it’s the perfect partnership. With both companies established right here in the Des Moines metro, it’s incredible to see a growing, leading retailer like Casey’s support local and diverse businesses. We couldn’t be more thankful and humbled to be part of the Casey’s family.”
Casey’s Zesty Jalapeño Peanuts will retail for $0.99 per pack, Casey’s Zesty Jalapeño Cashews at $3.99 each, and Casey’s Zesty Jalapeño Pretzels at $3.49 each.
“We are excited to introduce these new, tasty snacks with Lola’s unique flavor into our Casey’s snack offering across our over 2,400 stores,” said Tom Brennan, chief merchandising officer at Casey’s. “Our guests expect convenient, delicious options at a great price when they stop at their local Casey’s. By partnering with Lola’s, we’re able to deliver on that promise while supporting another business in our community."
