Further to the announcement on 08 October 2021, Tekcapital Plc
(AIM: TEK), (OTCQB: TEKCF) the UK intellectual property investment
group focused on creating valuable products from investing in
university technology that can improve people's lives, is pleased
to announce that MicroSalt Inc's (MicroSalt) roll-out of its
SaltMe! crisps to Kroger Company, the United States largest
supermarket by revenue, has been expanded from 800 stores to 1,800
stores. The roll-out is expected to begin in February 2022.
MicroSalt is a subsidiary of portfolio company, Salarius.
MicroSalt aims to revolutionize the food industry with its patented
sodium microparticle, that delivers the full-flavour experience of
salt with roughly half the sodium. MicroSalt(R) is all-natural,
non-GMO, and Kosher.
"We want to thank Kroger for their commitment to delivering
better-for-you products to their customers. Consistent with recent
FDA Guidelines, we strongly believe that the majority of the
population will benefit from consuming less sodium. We are excited,
that for the first time, individuals will have nationwide access to
SaltMe(R) Full Flavour-Low Sodium crisps early in 2022. This is a
major win for consumers," said Victor Hugo Manzanilla, CEO of
MicroSalt(R).
About Salarius Ltd.
Salarius, is the developer and manufacturer of a proprietary
low-sodium salt called MicroSalt(R). We are passionate about
improving peoples' lives with better-for-you snacks by taking the
lead in the industry by providing the best low-sodium salt
solution, based on the mechanical transformation of the salt
particle itself. This solution is the only one that delivers real
salt flavor because it is salt. Our new patented technology
produces salt crystals that are approximately one hundred times
smaller than typical table salt, delivering a powerful saltiness as
the micro-grains dissolve in the mouth, with approximately 50% less
sodium consumption.
Additionally, the ultra-small particle size enhances product
adhesion, which reduces waste and provides improved flavor
consistency. MicroSalt(R) and SaltMe(R) are registered trademarks
of MicroSalt Inc.
