Organic Garage (TSX-V:OG) Ltd said its plant-based subsidiary Future of Cheese Inc has reported a successful launch of its plant-based brie, selling through its first production run.
The Toronto-based company said that the plant-based brie was launched through retailers last week, and it builds on the recent success of the company’s plant-based butter.
“The retail response is even better than anticipated. Selling out our first production run without incurring lost product costs is as successful as it gets in the CPG business,” stated Jen Wojtaszek, President of Future of Cheese.

Wojtaszek added: “We are currently increasing production for all of our current products in anticipation of the holiday season, accelerated in part by increased interest from new retailers and potentially high-profile foodservice and restaurant partnerships.”
The Future of Cheese Inc is a Canadian plant-based cheese innovator and manufacturer led by one of the world’s best and recognized cheesemakers, along with one of Canada’s top chefs, and supported by a team of scientific minds and sustainability experts.
“We are so excited to have this new line of dairy-alternative products created by Canada’s premier cheese expert Afrim Pristine and his partners at Future of Cheese,” said Canadian retailer The Cheese Gallery.
Matt Lurie, CEO of Organic Garage (TSX-V:OG), told investors that following the successful launch of the plant-based brie, “we now have three SKUs that are in high demand and we are able to meet current and future needs from existing and new clients”.
