Hunter & Gather launches powdered chicken bone broth

The UK real-food brand wants the format to compete with protein shakes, not soup.

Hunter & Gather has launched a Chicken Bone Broth. The brand aims to reposition bone broth from a cold-weather staple into an everyday protein and collagen vehicle.

Each serving delivers 11g of protein and 5.5g of naturally occurring collagen, and is designed for both sipping and cooking.

A category shift, not just a SKU launch

Bone broth has mostly been a winter or sick-day product, which has kept the category small and seasonal. Hunter & Gather's bet is that a powdered, neutral-flavoured chicken broth can sit alongside coffee and protein shakes in a daily routine, particularly among women looking for a savoury alternative to sweet protein products.

"One of the most powerful changes you can make to your routine isn't about doing more, it's about doing something consistently," said Pauline Cox, Hunter & Gather's Director of Functional Nutrition.

"If you’re going to change one thing this season, make it this, swap out one daily habit for something that truly nourishes you. Whether that’s a mid-afternoon coffee or a quick snack, replacing it with a light, protein-rich fresh broth is a small shift that can have a meaningful impact over time.”


The product is available now at hunterandgatherfoods.com.
