New Brand: Enlightened Keto Collection

We are thrilled to announce our new distribution agreement with Enlightened in BC and Alberta. You may know them from the US, where they have been dominating the US market for ketogenic ice cream, now available in Canada for the first time.

Eating healthy shouldn’t be a compromise—it should be a celebration! What could be more joyful than all of your ice cream aisle favorites, served up full of flavor and made with nutrition you can feel great about? Their mission has remained the same since day one: to help people live healthier lives—and enjoy every bite.

Founder Michael Shoretz began learning how to help people live healthier lives after his father’s Type 2 diabetes diagnosis and became a certified personal trainer. After hearing his clients confess their ice cream indulgences, he resolved to make an ice cream that would fit his clients’ needs. With the help of talented experts and enthusiastic friends and family, the first box of Enlightened ice cream bars was created in 2012.

Western Grocer Article: Indulgent Delights

In this issue, Western Grocer explores strategic planning to maximize the opportunities for frozen novelties and ice cream. Both Melissa Leung, President and Marco Felicella, Canadian Director of Sales are quoted amongst other industry experts

“Canadians are seeking variety including dairy-free alternatives, low calorie, ethnic inspired products, and a focus on higher quality ingredients,” in Marco’s words.

As Melissa states, “All we do is frozen, with ice cream making up a significant portion of our business, guaranteeing a frozen cold chain from start to finish. Since we are not working with multi-temperature trucks, the product is fully protected from start to finish. It is not just about ordering the right product but ensuring that the frozen novelty can be delivered efficiently.”
