We are the World's First Certified Plastic Negative Tortilla Manufacturer. Officially announced in December 2020 after joining forces with rePurpose Global, a social enterprise who enables the removal and recovery of TWICE as much plastic waste from nature as we use in our manufacturing and packaging. We are focused on growth with environmental sustainability, and are putting our efforts into plastic waste diversion. So far, our Impact Partners have helped us remove over 300,000 single use plastic bags from nature annually. This plastic can be used to recreate other items such as plastic pallets. This is just the beginning for us as we continue to innovate delicious plant-based Mexican products without compromise. Learn more about our partnership with rePurpose Global at our rePurpose Global Microsite. Full press release available here.

We are always aiming to improve our packaging and design. Our new design reflects our Mexican roots while also bringing more color to the shelf space. And of course, our packaging is Plastic Negative.
