VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 7, 2023 /CNW/ - The Good Flour Corp. (CSE: GFCO) (OTCQB: GFCOF) (FSE: 3KZ) ("GFCO") today announced that GFCO has begun supplying a British Columbia-based meat processing plant (the "New Client") with its GF (Gluten-Free) Chicken Coating Mix/Blend. The New Client is using the GFCO chicken mix for foods such as GF chicken wings, GF chicken tenders, and GF popcorn chicken.
The New Client has a federally inspected Canadian facility, a key designation as it permits cross-border commerce to the U.S., in addition to sales throughout Canada. The new supply agreement exemplifies GFCO's sales channel diversity and further deepens GFCO's foothold in the robust gluten- and allergen-free food space and thriving chicken market.
According to Grandview Research, the global gluten-free products market size is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8% from 2022 to reach $13.7 billion by 2030. Despite chicken prices soaring in the first half of 2022, American's hunger for chicken remained strong, with $2.4 billion spent in the second quarter to buy 678 million breaded chicken sandwiches, up 3 percent from the first quarter of the year. In that industry segment, analysts at Technavio forecast the global take-out fried chicken market to experience a 5.32% CAGR to add $1.92 billion in market value from 2021 to 2026.
