VANCOUVER, BC, June 14,
2022 /CNW/ - good natured Products Inc. (the
"Company" or "good natured®") (TSXV: GDNP)
(OTCQX: GDNPF), a North American leader in plant-based products, is
pleased to welcome gourmet fresh produce grower, Girl & Dug
Farm as a customer embracing sustainability via earth-friendly
packaging from good natured®, made from annually
renewable, 99% plant-based materials.
Girl & Dug Farm is a second-generation family-run business
growing unique fruits and vegetables for some of the top chefs in
the world on their 180-acre farm in San
Marcos, California. They ship bespoke produce boxes to some
of the best restaurants nationwide, including Michelin-starred
restaurants in Los Angeles,
San Francisco, Chicago, and New
York. Girl & Dug has also expanded their business model
to include custom produce boxes for at-home gourmet meals
(Michelin-star chef not included!). With the changing landscape of
eating trends and growing food security expectations, they also had
to account for the logistics challenge of finding durable packaging
that makes their produce look as good as it tastes and is
functional within their shipping requirements.
good natured® earth-friendly packaging
was the ideal solution to meet Girl & Dug Farm's need for
functionality, durability, and sustainability impact. "good
natured® offered us everything we were looking for
in sustainable packaging: great design that shows off our product
and protects it from damage in shipping, great customer service and
reliability," shared Aaron Choi,
Owner of Girl & Dug Farm. "Everything from our hiring
practices, growing methods, and packaging choices must be an
extension of who we are and what we love to do. We're fortunate to
have found a partner like good natured® to work
alongside us to reach our sustainability goals."
Growing consumer demand for healthier products was another key
driver for why the California-based business began looking for
viable alternatives to petroleum-based packaging. All age groups,
especially Millennials and Gen Z, are more aware of the negative
health and environmental impacts of everyday consumer products and
how they are packaged. They increasingly expect brands and
retailers to be more socially and environmentally responsible, they
look to connect with brands that reflect their beliefs, and they're
willing to pay a premium for eco-friendly or sustainable
products.1
"Companies and consumers want to do the right thing, but not at
the expense of quality, performance or service," added Paul
Antoniadis, CEO of good natured®. "Our business
model makes it easy for all sizes of business to switch to
plant-based products that perform equal to, or better than, the
petroleum-based options we're replacing. We're excited to partner
with Girl & Dug Farm, who are making a conscious decision to
enhance their product offering with sustainable packaging."
