Rojo's Famous creates pancake sandwiches with sweet and savory fillings and these heat-and-eat handhelds can be unwrapped from packaging that's recyclable and compostable. The pancake sandwiches are made possible thanks to a proprietary oil-free pancake cooking process, which helps to create original and fruit-filled varieties. The freshly made fat-free pancakes are fully cooked and ready to eat, filled with ingredients like all-natural sausage and cheddar cheese or berries.
To enter new markets, expand its manufacturing capabilities and support increased demand, Rojo's Famous launched an equity crowdfunding campaign through Micro Ventures. Rojo’s Famous generated more than $1.28 million in revenue in 2020, up 271% year over year. With adults looking for quick and simple ways to refuel during days working from home, handheld snacks are appealing.
