JAMBAR Introduces Certified Organic Minis: Big Energy, Perfectly Portioned
New size offers a smaller energy option for athletes, families and snackers. Visit Booth #N1843 at Expo West for official launch.
SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (Feb. 26, 2026) — JAMBAR, the Certified Organic energy bar company founded by Jennifer Maxwell, co-creator of the original PowerBar®, is launching JAMBAR Minis. The new 1 oz-sized bars debut at Natural Products Expo West (Booth #N1843, North Hall, Level 200) to provide a flexible, smaller energy option for active consumers.
JAMBAR Minis are sold in 6-count boxes and are available in all five of the brand’s signature flavors: Musical Mango, Chocolate Cha Cha, Tropical Trio, Peanut Butter Malt Melody and Jammin’ Jazzleberry. The new line is available immediately for distributors, retailers and food service providers nationwide.
The mini bar was developed in response to growing consumer and retailer demand for flexible snacking options.
“We’ve heard consistently from families, athletes and retailers that they love JAMBAR’s ingredients and taste, but want more choices for how and when they fuel,” said Jennifer Maxwell, founder and CEO of JAMBAR. “Minis allow us to deliver organic, whole-food energy in a size that supports portion control and convenience.”
Snack-Sized Nutrition
Each 1 oz Mini contains 120 calories, putting it in the sweet spot of bridge snacks that satisfy hunger without replacing a meal. The smaller portion of carbohydrates provides a consistent dose of energy while helping to manage dramatic glucose spikes.
Consistent with the original product line, JAMBAR Minis are Certified Organic and contain ancient gluten-free grains, authentic natural sweeteners, and dried fruit or premium chocolate. Each Mini also has five grams of high quality protein, and is a great source of fiber.
Key Use Cases for JAMBAR Minis:
Convenience: Compact and durable for gym bags, pockets and purses.
Performance Fueling: Provides light, easily digestible workout fuel, ideal for endurance athletes who require smaller, more frequent energy intake before, during and after their workout.
Everyday Snacking: Sized appropriately for lunchboxes and mid-day bridge meals.
The Mini bars will also enhance JAMBAR’s extensive event sampling program, where the brand distributes more than 150,000 product samples annually across 300 sports, music and in-store events nationwide.
Expanding the Brand Vision
The launch was driven by both consumer and retailer demand. Families asked for smaller portions. Athletes wanted fuel in increments. Retailers sought a size that broadens snacking occasions and increases trial. Minis allow JAMBAR to attract new customers while serving loyal fans in new ways.
JAMBAR Minis are available now for retail and food service distribution. Visit Booth #N1843 in the North Hall at Expo West to learn more. For wholesale inquiries, contact sales@jambar.com.
