Oat Canada Launches Signature Barista-Quality Product in 1,000 New Locations
Niko Pajkovic — September 7, 2021 — Lifestyle
Canadian oat milk brand Oat Canada has announced the launch of its signature product in 1,000 supermarket locations across Canada. The stores include various Loblaws-owned retailers throughout the nation and select Costco warehouses in Ontario and Quebec.
This marks a major achievement for the company considering the brand was just launched last year by husband-and-wife duo Eloise and Jamari Ambursley. What sets Oat Canada apart from its competitors is that it is the first sugar-free barista-style oat milk to be offered in the country. In addition, the brand prides itself on producing a sustainable and healthy milk alternative while remaining completely transparent about its zero-sugar ingredient list.
"We got tired of misleading labels like ‘unsweetened’ or ‘no sugar added’ on oat milk cartons with sugar contents as high as 10 grams to 17 grams of sugar per serving,” said Eloise Ambursley referencing her and her husband's inspiration for the starting Oat Canada.
