Artisan Consumer Goods, Inc.

Artisan Consumer Goods, Inc. is a Nevada-based development-stage company that acquired the Within / Without Granola (WWG) brand and related intellectual property in 2021. The company restarted manufacturing in 2022 and sells original and maple-flavored granola products through Shopify. Its operations remain very limited, and management is still trying to secure a new manufacturer for smaller production runs. The business has repeatedly disclosed going-concern uncertainty and a dependence on outside financing to continue operating.
