SoLo GI – Leading the slow carb revolution.
KELOWNA, BC, Oct. 19, 2016 /CNW/ - Inspired to revolutionize the health food industry and make healthy eating easy, Saul Katz, founder of Kelowna, BC's SoLo GI Nutrition, is making a real difference in people's lives – one energy bar at a time. What originally started as a small company with a big idea, SoLo GI Energy Bars have expanded across Canada, and consumers and industry organizations are taking note.
SoLo's proprietary, great tasting formulation has earned the company recognition from two well-respected organizations – Alive Magazine and BC's Ministry of Small Business.

OCT 19th, 2016 - BC Ministry of Small Business recognizes Solo GI Energy Bars as "Raising the bar in the food industry," featuring the SoLo story and an informative interview with founder Saul Katz. "SoLo GI is focused on improving people's lives, and with the help of provincial programs to grow the business, we are able to provide a quality product for people in British Columbia, across Canada and soon in the United States as well." https://news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2016SBRT0052-002031
These accolades follow the announcement of the release of two new flavours, which launched Oct 1st, 2016. Caramel Peanut Sea Salt and White Chocolate Cherry were a hit from the moment they were released, bringing the total flavour count to 10 irresistible choices.
SoLo GI Nutrition was also featured in the Canadian Business Journal's March 2015 publication for the company's work in food innovation.
