ArgaNut Named a Challenger Fund Winner at Bread & Jam Startup Summit 2025

On the 21st of May 2025, ArgaNut was honoured to be named a Challenger Fund Winner at the Bread & Jam Festival, the UK’s leading event for early-stage food and drink brands. Backed by the visionary teams at Episode Two and Potter Clarkson, this recognition marks an exciting milestone in our journey to reshape the nut butter category with soul, craft, and intention.

Beyond the Jar: What This Recognition Means

To us, this is a powerful signal that there is space, and appetite, for brands that challenge convention. At ArgaNut, we’ve never set out to be ordinary. We set out to be meaningful.

We reimagine nut butters as luxurious, healthy rituals. Every jar is crafted with rare cold-pressed Moroccan argan oil, and every flavour reflects the care of ethically sourced ingredients, small-batch preparation, and Moroccan culinary heritage.

This win acknowledges our commitment to:

• Craftsmanship: Artisanal knowledge in every batch
• Innovation: Introducing argan oil as a gourmet upgrade in nut spreads
• Purpose: Partnering with women-led cooperatives at the source
• Wellness: Offering indulgence without compromise

The Real Highlight: Community & Momentum

Beyond the recognition, what stood out most was the energy in the room, a gathering of founders, buyers, retailers, investors, and food thinkers all determined to shape a better food future.

We had the opportunity to share the ArgaNut story with:

• Buyers seeking new luxury food experiences
• Investors exploring purpose-led challenger brands
• Industry experts and mentors inspired by our brand ethos and vision

What’s Ahead

We’ll continue pushing boundaries. Not with loud noise, but with quiet precision.

Not through mass-market expansion, but through thoughtful partnerships, luxury placements, and products that speak for themselves.

ArgaNut is a statement of craft, heritage, and healthy indulgence, one refined spoonful at a time.
