Specialty Food Association

Nexe Innovations, a plant-based materials science and advanced manufacturing technologies company, announced that both Nexe Coffee and Xoma Superfoods fully compostable single-serve pods are now available through Amazon Prime on Amazon.com.

The coffee line comes in Keurig and Nespresso compatible pods. The Nexe Coffee - Nespresso suite includes Dark Roast Espresso, French Roast, and Medium Roast, and comes in boxes of 10, 20, and 30. The Nexe Coffee - Keurig suite includes Premium Organic Medium, Premium Organic Medium-Dark, and Premium Organic Dark flavors, and comes in boxes of 12 and 24. The company is working with suppliers to offer larger quantities.

Nexe's Xoma Superfoods line targets the health-savvy, environmentally-conscious consumer and includes high-quality coffee and superfood creamers. Keto, MCT Coffee, Turmeric, Matcha, and Cocoa Keto SKUs are packaged in the fully-compostable Nexe Pod and come in packages of 12 and 48. Xoma Superfoods pods are compatible with Keurig single-serve brewing systems.

"Consumers continue to turn to environmentally-sound alternatives to plastic. Nexe offers a truly sustainable solution to the approximately 60 billion pods that are consumed annually," said Ash Guglani, president of Nexe, in a statement. "We continue to focus on adding manufacturing capacity at both of our facilities, which will bring us closer to back-filling sales as we continue discussions with various retailers and wholesalers.”

Nexe’s premium coffee is organically and ethically grown by partners in Peru, Ethiopia, and Indonesia. Beans are ground and packaged at Nexe's Canadian facility and sealed for freshness in the Nexe Pod, one of the world's only fully-compatible capsules that are compostable in your city's composting facility.
