We manage brands spanning multiple categories and classes of trade from coast to coast to coast. We`ve launched some and we`ve re-staged others but none of them were #1 to begin with. We`re proud of that. It speaks to the strength of our team and our selective approach to bringing on new clients. We`re an experienced team of focused, senior brand managers supported by solid business processes and technology. We manage fewer businesses with more applied resources. We`ve operated under this philosophy since 1945 and we`re still thriving. Our knowledge of the unique Canadian market covers everything from sales and marketing to logistics, distribution and administration. With this we promise full service.

The Lifeway Foods story begins in 1986 with kefir, a milk-based cultured drink that is popular in Eastern Europe and is said to be more nutritional than yogurt. That year, Russian immigrant Michael Smolyansky began manufacturing kefir in his basement to bring the taste of his native country to the U.S. After Michael Smolyansky passed away in 2002, his daughter Julie Smolyansky assumed the role of President, while his son Edward Smolyansky assumed the role of Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. Today, Lifeway is the country`s leading manufacturer of kefir, with multiple flavors and varieties that include lowfat, whole milk and organic versions as well as a children`s line, and a provider of other probiotic natural and organic dairy products for health-conscious consumers.
