Above Food, a vertically integrated, plantbased food company, has opened a state-of-the-art, gluten free ingredient development, processing and packaging facility: the Above Food Ingredient Centre.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Centre, located in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada \u2013 an epicentre of food innovation and protein production \u2013 is a new and critical component of Above Food\u2019s seed to fork delivery model. It will serve as the heart of the company\u2019s future product innovations and gluten free ingredient processing. It immediately elevates Above Food\u2019s Specialty Ingredients division within the CPG industry, while further differentiating the company\u2019s CPG brands, such as Farmer Direct Organic, Eat Up!, NorQuin, and
\nTiny Hero on grocery store shelves.<\/p>\n

BRC AA-rated, the highest food safety certification possible for food manufacturing facilities, the Centre features advanced technologies for cleaning, sorting, polishing, blending, and formulating. These technologies allow for the development, processing and packaging of flours, fibres, starches, flakes and texturized ingredients to be used by customers across the food value chain, including Above\u2019s private label and branded CPG products.<\/p>\n

Other notable features of the new Centre include purpose built high-capacity bulk handling, of over 100-million pounds annually; and high-velocity packaging capabilities for ingredient and CPG customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur Centre is world-class, representing what we at Above Food envision as the future of food,\u201d said Mike Marshall, president of Above Food Specialty Ingredients. \u201cIt bolsters our specialty ingredients capabilities and enables us to help customers accelerate ingredient innovation.
