GMO Practices

Manufacturer Communication

Sunseed's buyer calls vendors and manufacturers to verify GMO-free status of products, and to inform vendors and manufacturers when suspect ingredients are discovered. Buyers work regularly with manufacturers to encourage removal of suspect products.

Product Removal Process

Sunseed Food Co-op is actively removing products (including organic) of numerous brands owned by multinational parent companies and replacing them with brands owned by smaller companies that the store prefers to support.

Labeling

Sunseed Food Co-op is a Non-GMO Project supporting retailer.
