“Our strategy is to focus on outside-the-box sea salt concepts, ” said Giorit Carmi, Marketing Manager for Salt of the Earth in a statement. “We successfully address consumer desires to reduce sodium in the diet without giving up great taste. Our products help people create gourmet products that answer the growing demand for home-style recipes.

The company invested two years in developing advanced product lines of low-sodium sea salt and gourmet salt products for consumers, and advanced sea salt ingredients for sodium reduction in food applications.
Practical Innovation, Israel, a consulting agency specializing in product innovation, worked with Salt of the Earth to create the products based on extensive investigation of market trends and research.
“We initiated an advanced development process based on three foundations: product analysis to identify new product concepts following novel ingredients and new technologies; tracking food trends and market research; and establishing a short-time-to-market paradigm to maximize competitive advantages in the market, ” said Tal Leizer, CEO of Practical Innovation.
“We are very excited about this recognition by SIAL, ” stated Giorit Carmi, Marketing Manager for Salt of the Earth. “This is a significant step forward in building our reputation in the global food market and creating strong, long-lasting brands.
