On a recent Price of Business show, Host Kevin Price interviewed Robert Rosenberg, “Chief Crunch Officer” of Fan Foods Co.™ and Poppowls™.

They discussed how Fan Foods Co.™ and Poppowls™ are combining licensed entertainment franchises with better-for-you snacks and collectible movie-night experiences to create a new category at the intersection of fandom and food. Rosenberg shared insights on the company’s nationwide rollout at Walmart and Target featuring Disney, Marvel and Star Wars-inspired products, including tortilla chips, veggie puffs and themed popcorn kits. He also discussed how the brands are leveraging recognizable characters and storytelling to create more immersive consumer experiences that go beyond traditional snacking.

The conversation explored evolving consumer demand for experiential products, the growing role of licensing within the CPG industry and how entertainment properties are increasingly influencing purchasing decisions across grocery and mass retail.
