Kirk Homenick, president, Naturally Homegrown Foods accepting award

Naturally Homegrown Foods (NHF) has been awarded the 2022 B.C. Export Award in the consumer products category. 

“Getting our Canadian products onto the shelves of overseas retailers in countries like Japan or Taiwan is a great feeling,” said Lauren Rebar, director of sales at NHF. “We are proud to be recognized by Business in Vancouver as a leading exporter for consumer products in British Columbia and are looking forward to bringing a small piece of Canada to more stores across the globe. We can’t thank BIV and our partners around the world for the support they’ve given us.”

The Hardbite brand reportedly has a customer base across food distribution channels in Canada and the United States and exports overseas to countries like Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia. By the end of 2024, NHF plans to export to an additional three countries.
