June 25, 2025

IQBAR, the functional nutrition brand dedicated to fueling the mind and body, is officially available nationwide at Costco.

IQBAR will offer its plant-based protein bar flavors of Peanut Butter Chip, Chocolate Sea Salt, and Almond Butter Chip in an 18-count variety pack at all 627 Costco locations. Each IQBAR is packed with ingredients like lion’s mane, magnesium, and MCTs, while also being keto, Paleo-friendly, vegan, kosher, and completely free of GMOs, gluten, dairy, soy, and sugar alcohols.

“Our expansion into over 600 Costco stores nationwide is a monumental step for our brand,” says Will Nitze, founder and CEO of IQBAR. “Costco is a tremendous partner, and this growth is proof that members are consistently driving demand for our plant-based, low-sugar bars."
