ALOHA launches Kona Bar, first food product made with ultra-sustainable Ponova oil
Ponova oil is made from climate-resilient pongamia trees.
ALOHA, a plant-based protein brand and certified B Corporation, is kicking off B Corp Month with the launch of “The Kona Bar," a special edition product that supports sustainable agriculture in Hawaii while giving back to the next generation of environmental stewards. The bar features responsibly-sourced ingredients including 100% Kona Coffee and 100% Hawaiian-grown macadamia nuts, and the first commercial launch of Ponova oil in a food product, a sustainable plant-based oil made from the beans of ultra-regenerative, climate-resilient pongamia trees on Oahu.
Dedicated to using its business as a force for good, ALOHA will donate 10% of proceeds from every Kona Bar sold to Kupu, a nonprofit organization investing in Hawaiʻi’s youth through land stewardship and hands-on education. In addition to being a leader in plant-based food and impact, ALOHA is aiming to be a category leader in sustainability with its commitment to becoming Climate Neutral Certified. No other plant-based protein brand has obtained this certification to date.
