The Quinta team has had a busy and exciting start to 2017, our second official year selling Ontario-grown quinoa! Here are some updates on what the team has been up to with links to recent blog features and media updates.
Quinta Quinoa/ Katan Kitchens was very fortunate to be recognized with the 2017 Food Innovation Award from the Ontario Farm Fresh Marketing Association. This organization works to connect Ontario producers with value chain stakeholders, and generate positive publicity for locally grown Ontario products. The award was accepted at the 2017 Awards of Excellence Banquet, which took place at in Niagara Falls, ON on Tuesday February 21st, 2017. For more details on this award click here.
In addition to receiving an Innovation Award, Quinta Quinoa has attracted positive attention from some new blogs including the Localize Blog and the Green Living Show Blog.
Localize is a platform designed to connect producers with retailers looking to sell local products. Producers create a product profile and retailers can then search for products that align with their sales goals and easily connect with the producers. Check out Quinta Quinoa’s profile here.
The Green Living Show will take place at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre from Friday April 7th to Sunday April 9th. The Quinta Quinoa team will be exhibiting our Ontario grown, highly nutritious quinoa product at booth #518 in the Healthy Food section of the show. Our booth is directly across from the Food Feature Pavilion so you can’t miss us! Quinta will be sold at a 10% discounted price from what is currently available on the website so the Green Living Show is a great opportunity to try this locally grown, highly nutritious quinoa source!
