Founded in 1999

Founded in 1999 in the heart of the Fraser Valley in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada. Fraser Valley Packers Inc. specializes in the processing, freezing, marketing and distribution of cultivated blueberries, red raspberries and blackberries. We are 100% vertically integrated in the small fruit industry.

Fraser Valley Packers’ processing plants are committed to the highest standards of Food Safe Production and Quality. FDA, USDA and Canadian Food Inspection Agency controls are strictly adhered to. Field scouts monitor the growing process from the field to processing plant, ensuring the highest food safety standards are met every time. The Individually Quick Freezing process or I-Q-F, is a state of the art processing technology that guarantees the finest quality “frozen” product on the market. This unique process seals in the juices and natural flavors, while maintaining the berries original shape. Product integrity is a core value for Fraser Valley Packers and the tracking and traceability labeling system can identify any single packaged serving and trace it back to the exact day and facility from which it was shipped.
