Anchor Ingredients Co., LLC, a supplier of ingredients for the export, food and pet food industries, has broken ground on a pea protein facility in North Dakota. The strategic investment will propel Anchor to a leading position in the rapidly expanding pulse ingredient space. Anchor’s new pea fractionation facility will expand its capacity and help address the growing customer demand for plant based proteins.
The global demand for plant based proteins, specifically pea protein, continues to grow in both the food and pet food markets as consumers look for alternative sources of protein. Pea protein is unique as it is a non-allergenic, gluten-free, grain-free, non-animal based protein source, produced from a sustainable and environmentally friendly crop, field peas.
Anchor Ingredients will continue its relationship with Europe’s leading supplier of pea protein concentrate, Vestkorn Milling. By having the ability to supply both imported and domestically produced pea protein, Anchor will be uniquely positioned to service its diverse customer base.
