Ridgefield Park, NJ — May 15, 2026: Prepara, the innovative kitchenware brand known for rethinking how people prepare, store, and transport food, today announced the launch of the Berry Pod, a new addition to its wildly popular Pod lineup. Designed to keep berries fresher for longer, the Berry Pod addresses a common frustration: delicate berries that spoil quickly or become soggy when packed with other foods. With a removable inner basket that promotes airflow and separation, the Berry Pod helps maintain freshness while supporting a more organized, mess-free eating experience whether at home, at work, or on the go.
The Berry Pod builds on the trusted design of the Salad Pod, incorporating a removable basket that helps separate moisture from fruit, reducing sogginess and extending freshness. The compact, portable design supports healthier eating habits by making it easier to pack fresh fruit alongside meals.
For cleaning, the removable basket and watertight Berry Pod make it easy to thoroughly soak and rinse fruit. Once cleaned, simply remove the lid and pour water out from the top to drain. The basket’s elevated design helps keep excess moisture away from the fruit while promoting airflow, helping berries stay fresher longer whether stored in the refrigerator or taken on the go.
“The launch of the Berry Pod builds on the strength of our Pod line by introducing a new level of flexibility for how consumers prep, store, and take fresh berries on the go,” said Michael Karyo, Senior Vice President of Sales at Prepara. “Consumers want fresh foods that travel well and stay intact, and the Berry Pod delivers on that.”
Prepara is introducing the Berry Pod through two distinct iterations. The first is direct-to-consumer via the company’s website, www.prepara.com. For current Salad Pod users, the Berry Basket (MSRP $3.00) is offered as a modular accessory designed to integrate seamlessly with the existing Salad Pod system. For new users, the Salad Pod and Berry Basket Bundle is available in green for $28.00. The second is through retail and Amazon distribution, where Prepara is offering an all-in-one Berry Pod in red, priced at $25.00.
The Berry Basket and Salad Pod bundle are available now at Prepara.com, with retail distribution rolling out across select partners and Amazon.
