Lotus Foods offers ramen in more than 3,400 stores.

Lotus Foods announced from Richmond, California, that its Organic Wide White Rice Ramen Noodles are now available in over 3,400 stores. The product is featured in major national retailers such as Publix, Kroger, Sprouts, and Harris Teeter, as well as in regional and specialty stores like Lund’s & Byerly’s, Heinen’s, Hy-Vee, NCG, Nugget, Harmon’s, Erewhon, Earth Fare, Azure Standard, and MOM’s Organic Market.

Having been on the shelves for less than a year, the Wide White Rice Ramen has shown rapid growth, securing significant new distributions and engaging strongly with consumers seeking healthy, traditional ramen alternatives. Additionally, with the recognition of November as Gluten-Free Diet Awareness Month, Lotus Foods reinforces its commitment to providing accessible and allergen-friendly staple foods that align with consumer demands for clean and simple ingredients.

Coupled with its online growth through Walmart and Amazon, this early momentum signals an increasing demand for clean-label and versatile food products. According to SPINS data, ramen products containing wide-format noodles have experienced a growth rate of 38%, while the overall category growth has only recorded 0.5%. Lotus Foods is well positioned to capture this momentum with its Organic Wide White Rice Ramen.

Lotus Foods’ Wide White Rice Ramen is made with just one ingredient—organic white rice—and offers a bouncy texture with its unique wide noodle shape. Gluten-free, non-GMO, never fried, and free from artificial additives, these noodles provide a healthy alternative for both simple weeknight dinners and creative, chef-inspired meals.

Andrew Burke, CEO of Lotus Foods, stated, "The early momentum of our Wide White Rice Ramen shows that consumers value clean, simple ingredients along with a delicious meal experience. Expanding to over 3,000 stores in less than a year highlights Lotus Foods’ ability to innovate and respond to today’s consumer demands."
