Built Oregon has named the twelve consumer-products companies joining its Fall 2026 accelerator cohort. The lineup runs from spice blends and Tibetan dumplings to fermented hot sauce, artisanal popcorn, ancestral skincare, and premium pet gear.
Our Level Up Accelerator Program was inspired by our partnerships with prominent regional retailers New Seasons, Market of Choice, World Foods and Tender Loving Empire. While getting on the shelf at one of these retailers is a significant accomplishment, it’s also where the real work begins. This program, aimed at companies in retail, brings in experts to talk about everything from in-store demos to understanding margins and everything in between.
The Fall 2026 cohort:
- 4 Brothers and A Lady Spice Co.
- Ahara Rasa
- Himalayan Dumplings by Kyikyi
- ishq
- Last Night of Winter
- Lichen + Leaf
- Lucky Lads
- Nourish Pops
- Rad Pop
- Shredder Cheddar
- Tortuga Gordo
- Vuetastic Jerky
