Upton`s Naturals is an independently owned natural foods company with a focus on meat alternatives and vegan values. Dedicated to simplicity and the use of real, recognizable ingredients, the Upton`s team takes foods that have been around for thousands of years and offers them to consumers worldwide. The company`s founder pioneered flavored, wheat-based seitan since our inception in 2006, and has now launched the first-to-market seasoned and ready-to-eat jackfruit in the United States.
It`s a guilt-free, every-day, any-time of day treat for your taste buds.
Since 1960, Tree Top has been delivering products and ingredients that reflect the company’s passion, attention to quality and craftsmanship. Located in heart of Washington’s apple country, Tree Top is a global business firmly rooted in the co-op’s small town heritage and rural values. With more than 1,000 growers, Tree Top produces wholesome products including top-quality juices, sauces and premium ingredients. Tree Top and its growers are committed to growing, producing and innovating world-class fruit products. Our products and expertise, people and practices are the qualities that take us beyond the ordinary…beyond good. The cooperative employs approximately 1,000 employees in a wide variety of professions ranging from engineers to food scientists and skilled labor positions at eight various locations in Washington, Oregon and California, including at its subsidiary Northwest Naturals located in Bothell, WA. The company markets and sells its fruit-based ingredients and products to food and beverage manufacturers, to the Foodservice industry and to consumers via grocery and other retail stores, clubs and outlets.
In 2008, we celebrated our 50th anniversary. That was a very proud year for our family. What was once just a small regional branded company with a few employees has grown into the third largest national lunch meat brand with more than 1,000 employees at five locations. It was an incredible year for my family and the entire Land O`Frost family. We share the success with all of our employees, many of whom have worked with my father and have been with us for more than 25 years. Without them, we would never be where we are today. In January 2012, we welcomed Wimmer`s Meats, a leading provider of specialty sausages and hot dogs, into the Land O`Frost family. As our first major acquisition, Wimmer`s Meats parallels our rich family heritage as a family-owned and operated multigenerational business. Some of the products you will find in the Wimmer`s Meat family are Basset`s®, Fairbury® and Ambassador® hot dogs and sausages. Today, with my mother Donna as the Chairman of the Board, I strive to keep the values with which my grandfather and father started this business and will continue to grow Land O`Frost by fostering the entrepreneurial spirit they instilled in me.
