Plant protein, pure and simple.

Established in 2019, Merit Functional Foods is a Canadian company committed to exceeding expectations for plant-based protein, providing the market with the highest quality protein ingredients that offer unmatched purity, exceptional taste, and excellent solubility. 

From dairy and meat alternatives, to baked goods and beverages, and beyond - Merit's research and development team sees countless application possibilities and treats each one as an opportunity to serve their partners and customers better.

State-of-the-art Facility

Merit has built a 94,000 square foot production facility in Winnipeg, where it produces a portfolio of non-GMO pea and canola protein ingredients with exceptional functional and nutritional values. 

Commitment to Quality

Merit's facility was built with the utmost quality and food safety measures in mind, which led to its successful achievement of an AA score with the British Retail Consortium (BRCGS) Global Food Safety Certification. In addition, Merit’s ingredients are Non-GMO Project Verified, Gluten Free certified (GFCO), Kosher, and Halal, helping brands deliver label claims that align with consumers’ allergen- and lifestyle-related needs.

Grown and Produced In Canada

Merit believes that the quality of their protein ingredients comes not only from the richness of the soil but also from how the product is handled once it’s taken from the ground. This is why they proudly source Non-GMO Project Verified peas and canola that are grown in Canada, close to their production facility.
