Planet Based Foods Global Inc., a company that offers a wide range of hemp-based food alternatives, has announced that its Taquitos (Original with Cheese and Southwest Style) will be available in the popular California grocery chain, New Leaf Community Markets starting in August 2023.
Starting as a small cooperative in 1985, New Leaf has grown to six community-hub grocery stores, staying true to its progressive roots and community ethos. New Leaf provides sustainable, locally sourced food, supporting local producers and offering California-grown natural and organic products. Partnering with like-minded producers, the organization seeks to foster local entrepreneurship and promote social justice.
In 2013, New Leaf Community Markets became the first grocery store in California to achieve B Corporation certification. The certification allows companies to measure their performance against sustainability standards, including environmental practices, social equity and community impact. New Leaf gives back 10 percent of its profits to local nonprofits. With eco-friendly practices, New Leaf remains committed to reducing its carbon footprint and providing a supportive work environment.

Their remarkable commitment to social justice initiatives is truly commendable. Collaborating with such an incredible organization presents us with a remarkable opportunity to showcase our products as we continue to meet the increasing demand for plant-based alternatives.
