Quinoa was a principal component in the diet of the ancient Incas over 5,000 years ago and has since become a staple in modern kitchens around the world due to its nutritional benefits and versatility in cooking. Roland Foods offers a large selection of pre-washed quinoa varieties such as white, red, black, and tri-color.

Peru continues to be the largest producer of quinoa in the world, contributing to 43% of the US’s quinoa imports. The 2021 Peruvian crop for red and black quinoa has been low, resulting in price increases, but white quinoa prices have maintained more stable. Other parts of the world are also now growing quinoa, such as the US and Canada. The 2021 Canadian quinoa crop is progressing well and there are no anticipated harvest issues.
