Three Farmers Foods sources products from family farms in Saskatchewan province and roasts the ingredients to develop snacks sold in Canadian retailers. Metro, Sobeys and Whole Foods Market are also among Three Farmers Foods’ stockists.
“Our investment will further support the ongoing growth of Three Farmers, as the company continues to grow its product lines, markets, customers and distribution channels all from right here at home,” Grant Kook, the president and CEO of Golden Opportunities Fund, said.
