Puris

PURIS is a U.S.-based non-GMO pea protein manufacturer and ingredient supplier serving food brands, CPG manufacturers, and ingredient buyers across North America. Founded over 40 years ago, the company was built around a vertically integrated supply chain that spans seed breeding, grower contracting, crop processing, and finished ingredient supply — all domestically, without relying on international sourcing. PURIS is recognized as North America's leading non-GMO pea protein manufacturer, with its products found in more than 200 consumer brands across a wide range of food and beverage categories.

The company's core product line centers on pea protein derived from yellow field peas, available in multiple formats engineered to perform across diverse applications including beverages, cereal and snacks, alternative meat, pet food, and beauty and personal care. Its extruded pea protein is specifically formulated for meat alternative applications, delivering consistent texture, chew, and mouthfeel. Beverage-grade pea protein is processed to dissolve cleanly and resist off-notes, while snack and cereal formats are designed to support high protein content with a consumer-friendly clean label. In addition to pea protein, PURIS supplies food-grade soybeans grown in North America and processed in SQF-certified facilities, available in organic specifications for soy food manufacturers requiring rigorous consistency and clean supply chain documentation.

All PURIS ingredients are Non-GMO verified and glyphosate-free, with full traceability from seed to shipment. The company conducts rigorous heavy metal testing and maintains certifications and documentation standards capable of satisfying retailer requirements, certification bodies, and in-house R&D specifications. Organic options are available within its soybean program, and the company's non-GMO breeding expertise spans more than four decades.

PURIS operates a grower network of approximately 170 contracted U.S. farmers cultivating yellow peas, soybeans, and corn under structured contracts that include defined pricing, Act-of-God protection, and agronomy support. This grower program is backed by 40-plus years of non-GMO seed breeding expertise and is designed to connect domestic farmers to growing demand for plant-based and non-GMO crops.

The company completed its first third-party-validated greenhouse gas inventory in 2026, measured across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions through Planet FWD, establishing a baseline of 136,540 tCO2e total with 66.5% of emissions residing in Scope 3. Pea crops used in production are grown using regenerative agriculture practices and benefit from nitrogen fixation, reducing synthetic input requirements and contributing to soil health. PURIS positions itself as an ingredient partner for food brands seeking verified, traceable, domestic plant protein sourcing with the supply chain documentation to support label claims and certification requirements.
