Edible Garden AG Incorporated (NASDAQ: EDBL) is expanding its distribution agreement with Walmart, bringing its fresh cut herbs to additional store locations across the Mid-Atlantic region.
The enlarged rollout is scheduled to begin shipping products during the third quarter of 2026, extending consumer access to the company’s fresh herb range across new markets.
The expansion is a direct component of Edible Garden’s broader retail growth strategy, aimed at deepening market penetration through partnerships with major national grocery chains.
Chief Executive Officer Jim Kras framed the move as a continuation of the company’s long-term commercial ambitions, tied to its relationships with major retail partners.
“Growing our distribution with Walmart represents another meaningful step in executing our long-term growth strategy,” said Kras.
“We’re pleased to broaden consumer access to our premium, fresh herbs while continuing to strengthen our relationship with one of the world’s leading retailers,” Kras added.
The company believes the expanded retail footprint will improve product availability for consumers while reinforcing its standing with one of the world’s largest retailers.
Edible Garden is headquartered in Belvidere, New Jersey, and operates a network of controlled environment agriculture facilities that produce fresh herbs and other sustainably grown products.
Its farming operations are supported by GreenThumb 2.0, a proprietary software platform that uses data analytics and precision agriculture technologies to monitor and manage growing conditions across its facility network.
The technology is designed to improve production efficiency, maintain consistent product quality, and support reliable supply as the company continues building out its retail distribution footprint.
The Walmart expansion follows a period of broader commercial momentum for Edible Garden, which reported a 22.9% increase in first quarter 2026 revenue, reaching approximately $3.3 million compared to $2.7 million in the same period of 2025.
Cut herb sales led that growth, rising approximately 46% year-over-year, driven in part by new account contributions from retail partners including Kroger and Weis Markets.
The company currently distributes its products across more than 6,000 retail locations throughout the United States, the Caribbean, and South America, as it pursues an evolution into higher-margin, shelf-stable nutrition categories.
