Westsoy® started out
as a small company, Westbrae Natural Foods, when a pair of idealistic
students opened a coffeehouse in Berkeley. One of the foods they
offered was imported soymilk from Japan.
Westsoy® was acquired
in 1997 by the Hain Celestial Group, a multi-million dollar publicly
traded company that owns many natural and organic food brands. The
Hain Celestial Group also owns SoyDream®, another soymilk brand.
They refused to
participate and their sourcing information could not be verified. If
you enjoy Westsoy® products, we would encourage you to contact the
company and ask them to participate in the Cornucopia research study
and scorecard.
