- Bonsai is now the exclusive distribution partner for the food service of the start-ups Zonama and GASTROtaste in Germany. 

- The innovative and well thought-out smothie and bowl concept POMOM (GASTROtaste) is taking off in the catering industry with the Bonsai food service. 

- Zonama's innovative snacks, the Zebra Bar and Zebra Bar pro bars, as well as the ice cream of the future, Zebra Ice (the pure fruit for self-freezing), brings Bonsai to the wholesale market.

Hamburg, 21 March 2022. Bonsai now also offers start-ups sales in the food service sector - in gastronomy, communal catering and wholesale. Just one month after the launch of the new unit "Bonsai Sales & Food Services", the first projects for two new clients are already underway. Bonsai uses its expertise and analyses from the research area to make trends in nutritional behaviour (for example on the topic of snacking) usable for providers in the food service sector at an early stage.

Healthy top quality with taste, system and fun

"We started with two product families that make healthy eating really fun for consumers," says Kyra Thiele, who is responsible for the Food Service division at Bonsai : "Now we will convince restaurateurs and caterers of the innovative smothie and bowl concept POMOM. And we will bring the Zebra Bars and Zebra Ice from the Hanover-based start-up Zonama to wholesalers and where the demand for snacks is greatest - for example at petrol stations". More about the two start-ups and their products: 

POMOM / GASTROtaste - Innovative Smoothies & More for the Catering Industry & Wholesale Trade 

The innovative concept was developed especially for the catering industry. Premium smoothies, smoothie bowls and milkshakes that are prepared in seconds. Frozen, finely seasoned, portioned and ready for the blender. A top-quality lifestyle product that can be integrated into any catering establishment - for restaurants, cafés, events or even as a breakfast highlight in the hotel. www.gastrotaste.de 

Amalia Neufeld, founder of POMOM / GASTROtaste: "Our customers appreciate the products. With our concept of frozen smoothies, smoothie bowls and milkshakes, the restaurateur can save a lot of time during preparation and increase turnover at the same time. The products provide costing security, they have a long shelf life and avoid food waste. As a start-up, our resources for distribution are limited. With Bonsai we have a partner at our side who supports us in distribution and positioning in the market."  

ZONAMA - NO to unnecessary ingredients. YES to naturally delicious snacks

Bonsai says "YES" to this - and brings the new, healthy snack culture to the food service. With Zebra Bar (pure fruit) and Zebra Bar Pro (with probiotics, proteins and vitamins), Zonama Food shows that real innovation is still possible even in the competitive bar market. And with Zebra Ice, the start-up offers the ice cream of the future: pure fruit, delivered unrefrigerated, long-lasting, for self-freezing. Snacking can be fun AND healthy - vegan, gluten-free and lactose-free, of course. A new highlight for wholesalers and snack suppliers. zonama-food.de

Ramtin Randjbar, CEO & Founder of Zonama Food: "We started 2019 with the conviction that high impact food should be completely free of additives and industrial sugar. Only high-quality, vegan, gluten- and lactose-free ingredients end up in our products. To ensure that even more people can enjoy our Zebra Bars and Zebra Ice, we are now targeting food service with Bonsai ."
