There are many benefits of sourcing from The Forest Farmers, most notably:
We offer a variety of packaging formats to suit the specific needs of the companies that we work with.
These come in 5-liter or 17-liter and are best suited towards companies who are just getting started with product development and doing small batches. Many food service outlets also prefer bag-in-box since they can remain unrefrigerated after opening and are easy to dispense in to small containers.
Companies that do not have the infrastructure to handle drums often prefer using 5-gallon pails since they can be emptied by hand and are easily handled for small production runs.
We have nearly 2,000 stainless steel 55-gallon drums that we fill with maple syrup every year. After emptying them, our customers clean and return them to us to be filled again for the next harvest season.
These are considered 1-way drums that are best used when shipping large distances and there would be a significant cost to return the drums. The food grade epoxy protects the quality of the syrup and their relative low-cost keeps the syrup affordable.
