Planting Hope Global Markets is a consumer packaged goods company focused on the development, production and marketing of plant-based functional foods, ingredients and personal care products. Leveraging proprietary fermentation and botanical extraction technologies, the company creates innovative, nutrition-forward alternatives to traditional animal-derived and synthetic offerings.
Among its flagship products is a cultured cashew-based plant “white cheddar” alternative sold under the Full of Hope brand, formulated through precision fermentation to deliver creamy texture and dairy-free nutrition. The company also produces one of the first commercially available omega-3 oils derived from heterotrophic microalgae fermentation, offering vegan DHA and EPA functionality without reliance on fish sources. Complementing these core lines, Planting Hope markets a variety of seed and nut butters as well as botanical-infused formulations for personal care, serving both retail consumers and ingredient-focused manufacturers.
Headquartered in Kelowna, British Columbia, Planting Hope distributes its products across North American retail, natural products and e-commerce channels, while expanding into Europe and Asia through strategic partnerships. Co-founded by plant-based industry veteran James Naylor, who serves as Executive Chair, the company’s leadership team brings deep expertise in fermentation science, product innovation and consumer marketing. Planting Hope continues to broaden its multi-brand platform to meet growing demand for sustainable, plant-powered nutrition and wellness solutions.
