In this week’s episode, we welcome Janna Bishop, Co-founder, and CEO at Flourist, a premium Canadian dry goods company with a mission to protect Canadian farmlands and create food security for future generations. While Janna worked as an apparel designer at Mountain Equipment Co-op, she started a side hustle selling chickpeas, lentils, and wheat from her family’s Saskatchewan farm to Vancouver restaurants and retail outlets. In 2014, Janna connected with co-founder Shira McDermott to officially launch Flourist. Now in its seventh year with its flagship bakery located in east Vancouver, Flourist has earned a reputation for transparency, community building and quality ingredients.
