VANCOUVER, BC — Modern Plant Based Foods Inc. is in the process of expanding production in Canada to meet the unprecedented demand for its Snacks from the Sun line of products.
The company currently produces its product line in the US before redistributing in Canada. Following the launch of its Popped Chips and Puffs, Modern Plant Based Foods has seen unprecedented demand of Snacks from the Sun in Canada. As part of the company’s long-term plan, after a successful launch of the product, management would set out to expand its production line into Canada as well. By having additional manufacturing in Canada, the company will have significant increase in margin with savings on transport, freight costs and duties.
Snacks from the Sun popped potato crisps are light and airy crisps made from all-natural potatoes, whole grains and seasonings, then popped. The better-for-you chips are vegan and free of gluten, cholesterol and saturated fat. They come in six flavors: sour cream and chive, sea salt, cracked pepper, tangy barbecue, salt and vinegar, and nacho cheese.
“Our recent successful launch of Snacks from the Sun in Canada shows there is a great market for our products wherever we go,” said Avtar Dhaliwal, CEO of Modern Plant Based Foods. “More and more households are recognizing the benefits of incorporating tasty, low-processed, plant-based options into their diets.”
While Dhaliwal says the better-for-you trend is helping the Snacks from the Sun products gain popularity gain brand recognition, the next stage of growth means putting work into scaling up.
“Our brand has become more recognizable in past years, making it easier for us to get into retailers and distributors alike. With growth in all our product lines, we expect to be on a lot more shelves, making our need for a production facility for Snacks from the Sun in Canada a logical step in the near future.”
