Campbell Soup joins the Plant Based Foods Association

CAMDEN - Campbell Soup Company has announced that it is joining the Plant Based Foods Association, the only trade group representing the fast-growing plant-based foods sector, launched in March 2016.

The Plant Based Foods Association (PBFA) advocates on behalf of its members and works to expand markets in the retail and foodservice sectors. Campbell is the first major food company to join the PBFA. 

Recently, Campbell launched a new line of plant-based milks under its Bolthouse Farms brand. Made from pea protein, Bolthouse Farms Plant Protein Milk is refrigerated and contains 10 grams of pea protein per 8 oz. serving and offers consumers a nutritious alternative milk that is free of common allergens such as dairy, nuts and gluten. 

“We are committed to providing our consumers with food choices that meet their nutrition, well-being and lifestyle needs,” says Ed Carolan, President, Campbell Fresh. “Working together with the Plant Based Foods Association, we can advance our shared goal of bringing more plant-based foods to consumers.”
