Mikuna Foods produces chocho-based plant protein products marketed as regenerative and nutrient-dense, including a Pure Chocho single-ingredient product and Chocho Superfood Protein with 20 grams of complete protein per serving. The brand offers Vanilla and Cacao flavors in addition to the single-ingredient product, and positions its products as non-isolate, lectin-free, vegan, gluten-free, keto, paleo and non-GMO. Products are sold direct-to-consumer on Mikunafoods.com and Amazon and are available in retailers and foodservice locations across Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Michigan, Ohio, Texas and California. The company plans to use new funding to invest in people and teams, increase production capacity, expand retail and foodservice distribution, and pursue product innovation beyond protein supplements. Mikuna was founded by Ricky Echanique and is led by CEO Tara Kriese and CFO Gary Doherty. The company emphasizes chocho’s nutritional profile—high fiber, iron, zinc, calcium and more protein than other plants—as its core product differentiator.
