Beaverton Foods, Inc., the leading manufacturer of specialty branded condiments in the U.S., has finalized a redistribution partnership with Dot Foods, Inc., headquartered in Mt. Sterling, IL.
The deal with Dot Foods opens new growth opportunities for the Oregon-based private, family owned business, according to Beaverton Foods CEO Domonic Biggi. “It means we have national distribution capabilities that we’ve never had before,” Biggi said. “Mom and Pop restaurants now have access to our specialty condiments through Dot Foods. In the past, we managed our distribution all in house and we were often limited to the West Coast.”
The negotiations between Beaverton Foods and Dot Foods started at the beginning of the year. Dot Foods Director of Natural & Specialty Rodd Willis said they will start distributing the specialty condiments at the end of this month. Willis added that Dot Foods is thrilled to work with such a one-of-a-kind, family business. “We’re excited to work with Beaverton Foods. This partnership ties in with our pursuit of more specialty and natural food manufacturers,” he explained. “Our customers are continuing to look for these types of products, and we feel that Beaverton’s products are right in line with what our customers are expecting from Dot Foods. We have some other condiments in our offering, but the quality of Beaverton’s products and the story behind their products make them a unique supplier for us.” Beaverton Foods’ Beaver Brand and Inglehoffer are the leading shelf-stable horseradish and award-winning specialty mustards in the US* and it is the largest Safe Quality Food (SQF) certified processor of authentic wasabi products in North America. The company also offers a wide variety of best-selling gourmet sauces, garlic, spices, and other unique specialty condiments packaged under these labels: Beaver, Inglehoffer, Napa Valley, Tulelake, Pacific Farms and Charlie’s Salsa. The company also develops, produces and co-packs a broad range of products for companies in the US and abroad.
