Silver Hills Sprouted Bakery and Little Northern Bakehouse are both made at the company's two Abbotsford, BC bakeries (a sprouted-wheat bakery and a certified gluten-free bakery). The 2024 federal forced-labour supply-chain filing names only Abbotsford, BC as a manufacturing site, with more than 250 workers. The current corporate site also lists a 'US Production' address in Rossville, TN that is absent from that filing; its output volume and which brand it serves are not disclosed, so the US share here is an estimate.

Silver Hills Sprouted Bakery's wheat and grain breads use whole grains the vendor says are grown by Canadian farmers and sprouted at the Abbotsford bakery. Little Northern Bakehouse's gluten-free line is wheat-free, built on tapioca, corn and potato starches, brown rice flour and cane sugar, inputs more often imported. This mix weights the flagship sprouted-wheat brand over the gluten-free line by shelf prominence; the split is our estimate, not a vendor-published figure.
