Dare Foods is a Canadian company that has been family-owned and operated since it was founded in 1889. Throughout the company’s long history, it has created some of the most loved brands in Canada, including REALFRUIT gummies, Breton crackers, Bear Paws Cookies, and Melba Toast. Dare Foods products, including cookies, crackers, fine breads, and candy, can be purchased from stores nationwide.

The company’s head office is still based in the same region even though Dare has expanded operations far beyond where it started from. Dare operates five candy and bakery facilities across Canada and have consistently invested in them to expand capacity to meet demand for their brands. Dare employs over 1,000 Canadians from coast to coast and is committed and proud to be a part of the fabric of Canada.

Over 90% of Dare products sold in Canada are produced in Canada. Some of their Breton crackers are produced in Canada and the United States (Kitchener, Ontario, and Spartanburg, South Carolina).

Despite its growth, the company remains committed to “good goods and honest dealing”.
