Newark, NJ, October 10, 2024— Flows Tasty Treats, a Black woman-owned business based in New Jersey, is making history as it debuts its signature toasted corn and peanut mix in select Costco Wholesale stores. Beginning October 2024, Costco will offer Flows Tasty Treats in locations throughout New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia and Washington, DC — marking a significant milestone as one of the few minority-owned brands featured in the wholesale space.
Flows Tasty Treats Toasted Corn and Peanut Mix pays homage to African snacking culture by offering a “familiar and foreign” taste all-in-one bite. The savory protein-and-fiber-rich snack is an excellent wholesome alternative to processed foods.
