Four frozen menu selections from the Nutrisystem range of dinner and lunch products were victorious in BrandSpark International’s 2023 Best New Product Awards competition. More than 10,750 Americans participated in the USA national survey to pick the 62 winning products in Food & Beverage, Beauty, Health, Personal Care, and Household sectors. The winners are 100% consumer-voted and were determined based by shoppers who have consumed the products.
“We are proud to be recognized across four categories,” said Stephen Mikulak, president of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania-headquartered Nutrisystem division of Wellful, Inc., a provider of health and wellness and weight loss solutions.
The triumphant Nutrisystem products are:
• Hearty Inspirations Beef Lo Mein (Better-For-You Beef Entree category)
• Hearty Inspirations Bourbon-Style Chicken (Better-for-You Chicken Entree category)
• Hearty Inspirations® Bistro-Style Chicken Alfredo (Better-for-you Pasta Entree category)
• Cafe-Style Creamy Tomato Soup (Better-for-You Soup category)
“Our Hearty Inspirations Meals prove to be a favorite among consumers who are looking for delicious, filling, pre-portioned meals to help them meet their health and wellness goals.” Said Mikulak. “As a team, we are constantly working to diversify our menu to meet customer demand and these awards are validation that we are hitting the mark.”
“We are excited to celebrate the 15th year of the Best New Product Awards,” said Robert Levy, president of BrandSpark International and founder of the Best New Product Awards. “With so many new products launched each year, it is hard for consumers to know what to buy and challenging for brands to break through the clutter. This is where the Best New Product Awards help consumers know what is worth their hard-earned dollars. We see consumer attitudes shifting and can see that most leading brands are developing new products with meaningful innovations to meet these consumer needs and aspirations.”
All Best New Product Award winners will be featured in Newsweek magazine’s print edition and digital platform, and in an online shopping gallery on ShopperArmy.com, an engaged nationwide community of shoppers who try and review products.
