JAMBAR Takes Mini JAMs on the Road for Summer Trade Show Tour
Founded by Jennifer Maxwell, co-creator of the original PowerBar®, the certified organic energy bar brand will showcase its new 28g Mini JAMs at KeHE, Summer Fancy Food Show, and UNFI events this June and July.
SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (June 4, 2026) — JAMBAR, the certified organic energy bar brand founded by Jennifer Maxwell, co-creator of the original PowerBar®, is hitting the road this summer to introduce its new 28g Mini JAMs to retail buyers at three of the natural, organic and specialty food industry’s leading B2B events. The brand will showcase Mini JAMs alongside its full-sized energy bars at the KeHE Holiday Show in Chicago, the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York City, and the UNFI Central/West Holiday and Winter Selling Show in Las Vegas.
Built on Maxwell’s decades-long commitment to real-food performance nutrition, JAMBAR continues to bring a clean-label alternative to the energy bar set with certified organic ingredients, exceptional flavor, and fuel made from recognizable foods.
“We’re excited to bring JAMBAR to some of the industry’s most important summer trade shows and introduce retailers to our new Mini JAMs,” said Jennifer Maxwell, founder and CEO of JAMBAR and a nutrition and food scientist trained at the University of California, Berkeley. “Mini JAMs were created to give consumers a smaller, convenient way to enjoy the same certified organic, real-food nutrition JAMBAR is known for. In a category crowded with highly processed products, we believe our commitment to organic ingredients, quality protein, and real-food sweeteners truly sets JAMBAR apart.”
JAMBARs are made with certified organic ingredients including ancient gluten-free grains, premium chocolate, real fruit, nuts, and seeds. The bars are sweetened with real-food ingredients such as honey and maple syrup, with no sugar alcohols, artificial sweeteners, or manufactured sugars. Each full-sized JAMBAR delivers 10 grams of protein from whole-food sources, including sunflower seeds, quinoa, oat bran, and nuts.
