SunOpta, a leading global company focused on plant-based foods and beverages, introduces SOWN, one of the first organic oat coffee creamers on the market, as demand for plant-based food and beverage options continues to soar. SOWN was recently named a finalist in the 2021 Natural Products Expo West Virtual NEXTY Awards.
The product launch is part of SunOpta’s multi-pronged “go-to-market” strategy to leverage the company’s recent $26 million investment in an oat base processing facility in Minnesota. One of the largest of its kind in the United States, this facility uses a proprietary enzymatic process to turn whole oats into delicious products without the bitter, chalky taste that other less sophisticated processes create. SunOpta products are sold through a wide variety of channels, including private label, co-manufacturing, food service and owned brands like SOWN.
