Who We Are
Vision
Canada is a global leader in plant protein.
Mission
Invest collaboratively to accelerate innovation and the competitiveness of the Canadian plant protein sector.
Who we are and what we do
Protein Industries Canada, one of Canada's five Global Innovation Clusters, is an industry-led, not-for-profit organization created to position Canada as a global source of high-quality plant-based food, feed and ingredients. Together with trailblazing companies, NGOs, all levels of government and academia, and the capital community, we are working to develop a collaborative and innovative plant-based ecosystem that creates products and technologies to grow the Canadian economy.
We co-invest into large-scale science and innovation projects and ecosystem-building activities to transform Canada’s agriculture and food production sector. Together we will help secure Canada’s position as a global leader in the production of plant-based food, feed and ingredients, while also helping tackle some of the world’s most pressing issues — food insecurity, global health and nutrition, and carbon emissions.
We believe that by 2035, Canada can own upwards of 10 per cent of the global plant-based food, feed and ingredient sector. This could mean an additional $25 billion in annual sales for Canada, supported by 17,000 jobs.
