Why Pure Ground Ingredients?
Pure Ground Ingredients operates in the global food ingredient supply chain, sourcing ingredients from origins around the world and processing them in the United States.
We are looking for a commercial leader and business builder—not simply an account manager—who can help drive the company’s next stage of growth.
Founded in 2012, Pure Ground Ingredients, Inc. sources botanicals, herbs, and spices from organic farmers around the globe, processes them from our facilities in northern Nevada and the Netherlands, and supplies them to discerning manufacturers of organic foods, beverages, and Health & Beauty Aids, worldwide. Company leadership is comprised of active ownership complemented by a fresh group of seasoned executives with broad industry and entrepreneurial experience.
Pure Ground Ingredients is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
Pure Ground Ingredients is an importer of organic herbs, spices, botanicals + chilies. We purchase organic ingredients raw, process in-house in our facility in Northern Nevada and sell to food + beverage manufactures across the United State and Europe. We strive to provide the best in organic ingredients all while empowering farmers and communities around the world.
At PGI, we like to think of ourselves as the bridge between farmers of organic ingredients and manufacturers of organic products- and our most important role is being a friend to both. It didn’t take us long to learn that farmers thrive when our customers thrive, and vice versa- so we work every day to play a role that adds value to both parties. We source ingredients from over 35 different countries and are on a continuous mission to both improve product quality and ensure economic vitality for our farmers and their communities as well as for our customers. We replenish land, invest in communities, develop education programs, and do everything we can to support sustainable practices, a healthy plant and happy people.
