Taylor Farms was recognized as the winner of the 2024 Mindful Awards’ Overall Food Product of the Year award for its Mini Chopped Salad Kits.

The 2024 Mindful Awards program is an independent recognition platform highlighting conscious companies and products that mindfully have a growing role in consumer packaged goods, according to a news release.

“A company’s ethos is playing more and more into the decision-making process as buyers evaluate a product in this crowded market. A focus on health, transparency, responsibility, and understanding the impact of their actions on humanity, put these companies ahead of the pack,” Travis Grant, managing director for Mindful Awards, said in the release. “We’re thrilled that the 2024 Mindful Award featured winners represent conscious companies who purposely strive to make a difference and through their actions and innovation create products that shine above the rest. We couldn’t be prouder of the 2024 winners paving the way for the future.”

The mission of the Mindful Awards program, the group said, is to honor conscious CPG companies and products that offer healthier choices with an environmental and social consciousness in mind. This includes the use of natural or organic ingredients, transparency to consumers, workers’ fair wages pay, ensuring sustainable business practices, use of recycled, recyclable or upcycled materials, while still delivering an outstanding product.

This year’s program attracted thousands of nominations from companies all over the world, the release said. All nominations are evaluated by an independent panel of experts within the consumer-packaged goods industry.

Winners span categories such as Food, Beverage, Home, Personal Care, Leadership and more, and have been judged around the concept of mindfulness, according to the release.
