NPC is a national organization that supports bio-based innovation, and this first of its kind Game Changers report showcases the breadth of female leadership in Canadian companies that are creating economic and social impact through their natural and bio-based products. The report features companies from across the country with products designed for consumers seeking new options for their health and wellness such as food, beauty and personal care items, as well as industrial products such as bio resins and biopesticides that help corporations looking to reduce their carbon footprint and meet their sustainability goals.

"Canadians should be proud of these innovative companies that are delivering better, healthier options for people and the planet," says Shelley King, CEO, Natural Products Canada. "The women leading these companies are truly making a difference, and we are very proud to provide this platform to introduce them to new customers and partners."

Lita's Mexican Foods is Canada's first and only 100% vegan Mexican frozen food manufacturer and aims to become the Mexican food category leader in Canada. Their mission has always been to create high quality products that are built upon a social and environmental framework, which they are succeeding at by reducing their plastic footprint as a Certified Plastic Negative Company and with community outreach and inclusive hiring practices. As they await an eco-plastic alternative that meets food safety demands, they have partnered with rePurpose Global, which has enabled Lita's to remove over 300,000 single use plastic bags from nature annually; and in 2022, they were honored by WorkBC for providing an inclusive workplace. Today, Lita's products can be found in over 200 natural, independent, and conventional retailers across Canada, as well as several food service establishments.
