A Staple of Flavor & Immune Support
For thousands of years, garlic has been added to meats, vegetables, grains, and starches. Garlic can be found in every kitchen in some form – fresh, powdered, in seasoning blends, and pre-minced in jars. It pairs well with broccoli, lemon peel, and chili pepper.
In addition to a coveted flavor, this potent ingredient is a well-known immune support superstar. Studies have shown that garlic supports a healthy immune system during cold and flu season.
Our wide variety of air-dried garlic cuts enable the addition of flavorful, nutritious garlic to a variety of applications, including soups, seasoning mixes, snacks, gravies, meat products, stuffings, pasta sauces, table sauces, and just about every savory application one can imagine.

Sustainable • Traceable • Reliable Quality • Competitive Prices
BCFoods has made great progress in our work to provide sustainable ingredients. We are proud to offer a sustainable option for the majority of our products, including garlic, where we have contracted with farmers growing fresh garlic for dehydration who have been awarded third-party certification for sustainable agriculture. We use the latest technology, local education, and local partnerships to reduce water use/waste, land erosion, pesticide overuse, soil and groundwater contamination, and biodiversity loss. Learn more about our sustainable agriculture and production practices.
With feet on the ground and strong quality oversight, you can rely on BCFoods garlic to maintain consistent pungency, color, and flavor.
