Our Mission
The food industry is evolving rapidly as consumers continue to learn about the health and environmental consequences of artificial ingredients. At New Horizon Cuisine, we are champions of this clean-label movement, here to prove that ingredients can be nutritious and flavor-packed at the same time.
Our mission? To help restaurants and food brands build trust with their consumers through clean and transparent ingredient sourcing. That’s why we offer products that are:
Certified Organic Producer
Our Certified Organic products offer full transparency for the organic customer. From sourcing, production, labeling, and delivery, New Horizon Cuisine is a trusted resource for the organic customer.
No Added Preservatives
Our products are free from artificial preservatives and additives, such as sodium benzoate and sulfites. This helps reduce the risk of allergic reactions, chemical sensitivities, headaches, digestive issues, and other unwanted health effects.
No MSGs
We also avoid MSGs in our products to support cleaner labels and give consumers peace of mind. MSGs are flavor enhancers commonly used in processed foods. While their long-term impact on human health is not yet fully understood, research has shown that some individuals may experience sensitivity to MSG, with symptoms like headaches, nausea, or dizziness.
Gluten-free
We also avoid gluten in our products to cater to the growing number of gluten-sensitive consumers. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye that can trigger digestive issues in people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. While not everyone is affected, removing gluten helps us create inclusive, feel-good products that more people can enjoy with confidence.
Low Sodium
Unlike other food manufacturers, we do not rely on sodium as a means of adding flavor. Instead, we rely on natural ingredients and seasonings to create a burst of umami in every product. Reducing the amount of sodium in our products is important for promoting heart health, supporting balanced diets, and aligning with the nutritional goals of today’s health-conscious consumers.
No GMOs
New Horizon Cuisine products are completely free of any GMOs, or genetically modified organisms. These are ingredients whose genetic material has been altered in ways that do not occur naturally, usually to maximize harvest or increase pest resistance.
While the long-term effects of consuming GMOs are still being studied, some research has linked them to potential health concerns such as increased food allergies, digestive issues, and antibiotic resistance.
