By prioritizing exceptional flavor, uncompromising quality, and sustainable food production, Cheddies is reshaping consumer expectations in the better-for-you snack space. As an early believer in Cheddies’ vision, Gravette Capital has backed the brand’s growth, helping pave the way for its nationwide rollout across 1,700+ Target locations.

This milestone rollout features Cheddies’ Classic and Spicy Cheddar 4.2 oz crackers, a brand-new Classic Cheddar Cracker Multipack (0.8oz/8ct) in 800 stores, and the first major retail placement for their Chili Lime (4.2oz) crackers, now available in 1,100 locations. To celebrate, Cheddies is launching its first in-store promotion, available through March 15th, inviting customers to experience the brand firsthand.

To amplify the launch, Cheddies partnered with Grammy-nominated DJ, producer, and entrepreneur Steve Aoki, who shared his excitement: “When I discovered Cheddies, their savory taste and satisfying crunch had me hooked right away. That’s why I’m excited to join the team as Chief Snacking Officer. Together we are going to remix snack culture through rich flavors and bold ideas.”
