Industry Mainstay

Bonafide Provisions is a legitimate, established CPG brand with verified national distribution and estimated annual revenue in the $6M-$10M range, exceeding the 'Calibration' baseline for traction. However, the project scores lower on technical innovation as a food product and suffers significantly from a low-quality submission (hyperbolic claims, misused financial terminology, and lack of verifiable data). Note: This entity is distinct from 'Bonafide Health' (supplements) which was acquired for $425M; Bonafide Provisions remains a smaller, independent broth manufacturer.
