Montreal, Quebec, December 10, 2024 — Canadawide Fruits BB #:117489, a major player in the distribution of fruits and vegetables, and Les Entreprises Pitre, one of the largest berry producers in Canada, are proud to announce their partnership with Bleu & Bon, a company specializing in the processing of berries.
Together, these three companies are joining forces and expertise to develop an even more diverse range of fruit-based products.
This collaboration is beneficial for each of the partners. For Canadawide, it consolidates its commitment to eco-responsible practices by integrating a “food recycling” solution into its business model. Thanks to this alliance, fruits that no longer meet usual freshness standards or have imperfections can be transformed into healthy and nutritious products.
For Les Entreprises Pitre, it is an opportunity to add value to its second and third-grade berries as well as its production surplus. This new project aligns with the organization’s continuous innovation efforts by adopting sustainable practices while diversifying its activities.
For Bleu & Bon, this partnership ensures a stable supply of berries and facilitates access to new sources of raw materials to enrich its product range. By transforming a greater quantity and variety of fruits into nutritious foods, Bleu & Bon strengthens its mission to offer quality products to health-conscious consumers.
