From farmer’s markets to grocery stores all over the world, Hardbite Chips has spent 20 years finding creative ways to stand out in the densely packed salty snacks category. Kirk Homenick, President of Hardbite Chips talks about the value of ‘clean labels,’ the importance of customer-first innovation, and what it looks like to source ingredients and inspiration locally. As a proudly Canadian company, it’s no wonder that their Canadiana-inspired chip collection is a finalist in the Retail Council of Canada’s Grand Prix New Product Awards.
