Western Grocer Serving the industry since 1916
Kindred Cultures, a local fermented foods producer specializing in Water Kefir production, has just expanded into its new production facility in Richmond, BC. The new 3000 square foot facility is 12 times larger than Kindred Cultures’ previous 250 square foot production site in Vancouver, providing space for the installation of automated machinery, as well as more room for inventory storage.
“Moving into this new facility allows us to not only meet the demand of our current immediate geographies, but also satisfy the growing demand in locations beyond British Columbia,” said Lyndsay Scott, founder, and CEO of Kindred Cultures. “With the increased production capacity, we expect that we will be able to distribute our products nationwide by early 2022.”
With a steady increase in production volumes each month, Kindred Cultures’ move to their larger Richmond facility has come just in time to accommodate the company’s growth. In fact, from May to July, their production numbers have more than doubled – and they keep getting larger.
“We actually had to buy a larger fermentation tank right after moving to keep up with the increasing volumes,” Lyndsay continued. “The space we had in Vancouver would definitely not have been able to fit this addition to our equipment, which is why we’re so grateful we were able to move when we did.”
