A NEW ERA FOR TWO PIONEERING CANADIAN COMPANIES
In January 2018, Avena Foods Limited welcomed a new partner into the fold. Best Cooking Pulses, Inc., a family-owned agri-foods company that had been active in the international pulse trade since 1936, was looking to expand beyond its pulse offerings. Avena Foods Limited wanted to extend the crops grown under ‘Purity Protocol’ and to move beyond their farmer co-operative ownership.
The shared values of these two Canadian companies serve as the foundation for the new Avena Foods Limited:
- strong partnerships with farmers,
- the milling of traceable, high quality, safe ingredients,
- exemplary quality and food safety systems,
- respectful relationships with customers and staff, and
- sustainable environmental practices.
