About Quinta Local Superfoods Inc. 

Quinta Local Superfoods Inc. is an innovative, health food enterprise that seeks to produce local, high-quality Superfoods in Canada. Founded in 2014, Quinta has emerged as a leader in the research and development of quinoa in Canada and is now the largest producer of Quinoa in North America. Quinta was formed by Jamie Draves after a health crisis in 2007 that resulted in the loss of a third of his pancreas. From this, Jamie was forced to follow a very limited diet consisting of high-quality, nutritious foods. Many superfoods, in particular quinoa, were a key factor in regaining his health. Realizing the use of high-quality foods for improved health drove Jamie’s passion and pursuit to form Quinta Quinoa and demonstrate the value of Superfoods for a healthy diet. We now aim to produce and prepare the highest quality Canadian-grown quinoa in the marketplace.
