Once Upon a Farm is a California-based company with a big dream: to provide yummy and nutritious “farm-to-family” foods to kids of all ages.
From beverage solutions and sauces to marinades and seasonings, ILLES Foods has provided custom-crafted culinary creations and R&D expertise to food service chains chains, food manufacturers, and grocery retailers across the US for almost 100 years. The family-owned and woman-run company is a key partner to companies looking for product development excellence, creativity, and speed to market paired with a laser focus on a better customer experience. The values we`ve learned and lived over the years — trust, food safety, excellence, creativity, teamwork, giving back to the community — motivate our people to help our customers be better with us than without us, and are the driving forces behind our growth. ILLES Foods was started by Austrian-Hungarian Olympian-turned-chemist Arpad Enoch (A.E.) in his home`s extra bedroom. Today the company operates two different manufacturing plants – a total of about 300,000 square feet between dry and liquid production. 2020 marked a new era at ILLES Foods, with Cristin Illes Kahale, the founder`s great-granddaughter and the fourth generation of the family, taking helm of the business.
Since our founding 10 years ago, we`ve always been a different kind of company. After moving to New York from his native Turkey, our CEO Hamdi Ulukaya thought everyone deserved better options, so he set about making delicious, nutritious, natural, and accessible Greek Yogurt right here in the U.S. Our mission since day one has been to provide better food to more people. And now as the No. 1-selling Greek Yogurt brand in America and the second largest overall yogurt manufacturer, we believe every food maker has a responsibility to provide people with better options, which is why we`re so proud of the way our food is made. From the very first batch that came off the line in Upstate New York, in 2007, our cups have been crafted using only natural, non-GMO ingredients. We refuse to use any preservatives. Our yogurt contains no artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, or preservatives. It has been a busy 10 years for Chobani. Along our journey, we`ve constantly innovated our offerings to evolve with customer tastes and preferences, leading with values, and putting our people first. As we look to the future, Chobani is reinvigorating its founding mission with a vision to make universal wellness happen sooner using food as a force of good. Our vision builds on the company`s founding mission to provide better food for more people, while laying out how Chobani is defining wellness and where the brand will invest to achieve it: • Nutritional Wellness: Scaling our efforts to provide better food for more people. • Social Wellness: Increasing our investment in the communities we serve and the people who craft our food. • Environmental Wellness: Building a supply chain that ensures the planet`s health. This evolution supports Chobani`s ambition to become a food-focused wellness company and providing better food to all people.
Do Good Foods is creating a more sustainable food system at scale that combats climate change with urgency and action. Founded by the Kamine Family, Do Good Foods uses technologically advanced infrastructure to reduce food waste by collecting grocery surplus that would otherwise go to landfills (after human donations occur), converts it to animal feed, and uses it to create carbon-reduced, delicious food that consumers can purchase at their local supermarket. This closed-loop system delivers an economic and environmental impact that is scaling nationwide. This new way of upcycling surplus grocery food empowers consumers to be a part of the solution to fight food waste and combat climate change with their everyday purchases. Do Good Foods, Good for Plate & Planet™.
