Target's Good & Gather Collabs Features Chef-Inspired Selections
Target is adding some chef-inspired products to its Good & Gather own brand with the launch of Good & Gather Collabs, the first of its kind partnership for the brand. The partnership features restaurant-quality food and flavors created by celebrated chefs and tastemakers. The line launches on March 9.
Initial products in the new Collabs line are from James Beard Award-winning Chef Ann Kim, who runs acclaimed restaurants Pizzeria Lola, Young Joni, and Hello Pizza in Target’s Minneapolis hometown.
Good & Gather Collabs + Ann Kim brings seven Korean-inspired frozen pizzas and appetizers to Target, including her claim to fame – The Pickle Pie. Topped with ranch sauce, sliced pickles, and crunchy potato chips, this unique take on pizza taps into a surging trend. Google searches for pickles have skyrocketed 3800% since early 2023, but Kim has been serving her signature pickle pies since 2020.
“I am incredibly excited to share my culinary creations through this collaboration with Target,” Kim said. “For me, food is all about pushing boundaries and creating memorable experiences. I’m excited for people to enjoy the pizzas featuring unexpected flavor combinations on a spectacular crust, plus Korean-inspired appetizers I think people will love.”
The lineup includes four premium wood-fired pizzas ($7.49 each) and three restaurant-quality appetizers ($6.49 each):
- Pickle Pie Woodfired Pizza
- Four Cheese with Sweet & Spicy Chili Sauce Woodfired Pizza
- Spicy Sausage and Sweet Pepper Woodfired Pizza
- Tavern-Style Uncured Pepperoni & Jalapeno Woodfired Pizza
- Korean-Inspired Bulgogi Meatballs
- Korean-Inspired Corn Cheese Bites
- Korean-Inspired Kimchi Dumplings
“People love Target because we make the best design accessible to everyone, and Good & Gather Collabs + Ann Kim is all about extending that legacy into our grocery aisles with the restaurant-quality food and new flavors consumers are craving,” said Lisa Roath, executive vice president and chief merchandising officer of food, essentials and beauty, Target. “Chef Ann Kim is fearless with food, tapping into global influences and her Korean heritage to create truly unforgettable meals.”
Since launching in 2019, Good & Gather has become Target’s No. 1 selling-owned brand. More than 2,500 items are sold under the retailer’s private brand, and all are made without artificial flavors, synthetic colors, artificial sweeteners, and high fructose corn syrup.
