As Canadians prepare to celebrate Canada Day with backyard BBQs, neighbourhood gatherings and family get-togethers, many are looking for ways to support products made close to home. From Canadian-grown potatoes and oats to products made in facilities across the country, food is becoming part of the “Buy Canadian” conversation this summer.
PepsiCo Canada has longstanding ties to Canadian agriculture and manufacturing. Lay’s potato chips are made in Canada using Canadian-grown potatoes sourced from Canadian farms, while Quaker products are made with 100% whole-grain Canadian oats and produced in Peterborough, Ontario. Across the country, Frito-Lay Canada’s manufacturing facilities produce many of Canadians’ favourite snack brands, helping bring Canadian-grown ingredients from farm to table.
Whether it’s a backyard BBQ, a neighbourhood potluck or a Canada Day picnic, here are a few Canadian-made favourites that can help round out the menu.
