Founded in 1946 in British Columbia, SunRype is a popular manufacturer of fruit and veggie-based products. I remember their Fruit to Go and Fruit Source bars as being a common snack for me as a young boy. Though previously publicly traded on TSX, the company was purchased by the Jim Pattison Group (the largest privately owned company in Canada) in 2013. Their primary plant is in Kelowna, but they have two plants in Washington, in Selah and Wapato. Be sure to check the label when buying if you’re interested in getting a product from Canada, but remember that they are Canadian owned regardless.
