Flavorful lineup of organic 100% grass-fed beef and free-range chicken patties earns NEXTY Awards recognition and spot in New Hope Pitch Slam

Anaheim, Calif., Feb. 21, 2018 – TRIBAL Foods, purveyors of American-made, clean protein patties, will sample its three varieties at booth N112 at Natural Products Expo West in the Anaheim Convention Center, March 8-11. Finalists in the tradeshow’s NEXTY awards representing what’s next in natural foods, TRIBAL products merge wholesome, nutrient-dense meats, ancestral ingredients and globally-inspired flavors. Currently available in Mediterranean Style Beef, Umami Beef and Chipotle Chicken, the patties are Paleo certified, Whole30 approved, Non-GMO Project Verified and free of gluten, dairy and soy.

Founder and Holistic Nutritionist Angela Bicos Mavridis created the brand to make eating healthier more convenient, and delicious. After a 35-year stint as a vegetarian, Mavridis rediscovered the Paleo diet, which mirrored the culinary traditions of her Greek upbringing. In turn, she realized high quality animal meats, a colorful variety of vegetables and fruits, and nice dose of quality fats, were what made her feel healthy, happy, satiated and energized.

“My family traditions engrained a love of sharing the joy and togetherness that a delicious, healthy meal can bring,” said CEO and Founder Angela Bicos Mavridis. “It’s an honor to bring this to more kitchens across America, and help others eat healthier, one meal at a time.”

Cooked from frozen and ready-to-serve in minutes, meats are sustainably sourced from American ranches where animals are raised humanely without any added antibiotics or added hormones. Blended with locally sourced herbs and vegetables like shiitake mushrooms, poblanos and fire-roasted garlic, TRIBAL’s patties capture exciting flavor profiles from around the globe without any added sugar, preservatives, binders or fillers.

The brand’s retail footprint is rapidly growing with new product innovation, including chicken and apple and pork and sage breakfast meats, currently in development. Mavridis will also compete among a selection of eight promising natural food startups in the Natural Products Business School Pitch Slam, beginning with the Semi-Finals Competition on Wednesday, March 7 from 5-6 p.m.
