Festida Foods, Inc.

Festida Foods was founded in Cedar Spring, MI, in 1991, as a manufacturer of corn tortilla chips, supplying local restaurants, small markets, and food service distributors. After a change in ownership and management in 2006, the business refocused its efforts on private label and co-manufacturing opportunities, partnering with larger customers and helping build brands. The strategy proved successful and brought sustained growth to Festida. In 2012, a decision to move to Grand Rapids into a larger, 150,000 square foot facility, has further bolstered growth, reinforced strategic change, and helped Festida evolve into the company it is today. Festida Foods'​ business consists wholly of private label and co-packing services. Unlike other co-packers, we are not a brand owner or promoter, and therefore we do not compete with our customers. We are proud to develop and manufacture snack foods for many major national retailers, nationally distributed brands, regional grocers, and food service providers.
