About Us - SimplyProtein

Our History

Life is busy and you like to keep things simple – and so do we. Our founder, Cathy, was looking for snacks with a short list of clean ingredients that would give her everything she needed (like lots of protein) and nothing she didn’t (like lots of sugar)!

When she couldn’t find anything, she started SimplyProtein®. Over 15 years later we’ve stayed true to what was most important to Cathy, snacks that work for you.

Function Meets Flavour

Since the beginning, SimplyProtein® has been about bringing together great taste and nutrition. All of our snacks are gluten free and contain no artificial flavours or artificial sweeteners.

From humble beginnings, we grew to a full range of great-tasting, nutritious products including: bars, chips, protein cookies and, our newest addition, collagen bars. We hope you love them as much as we do and would love to hear from you!

Whether you are looking for snack options that are gluten-free, Non-GMO Project verified, kosher, plant based, vegan, dairy free or peanut and nut free, we have an option for you! All SimplyProtein® products are gluten-free. . Our SimplyProtein® kids bars and whey bars are crafted in a facility that is certified peanut and nut free. Curious to know more?

Gluten Free

All SimplyProtein® products

We don’t tolerate gluten, and you don’t have to either! Gluten is the general name for proteins found in wheat, rye, barley and triticale (a wheat/rye hybrid) which also sometimes contaminates oats during harvesting. Products that don’t contain these grains are typically called gluten free. Many people find that they feel better when they reduce their exposure to gluten-containing products, and a small percentage of the population has Celiac disease, an allergy to these proteins.

Plant Based

SimplyProtein® Bars, Chips, Protein Cookies and Kids Bars

Products that don’t contain any animal products (meat, fish, eggs, dairy) are classified as plant based. A diet consisting mostly of plants, especially vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts and seeds, is generally considered better for long-term health and more sustainable for our planet.

Kosher

SimplyProtein® bars, Protein Cookies, Protein Chips, Kids Bars and Whey Bars

SimplyProtein® bars, Protein Cookies, Protein Chips, Kids Bars and Whey Bars are certified kosher; however different products have different certifying bodies. We recommend that anyone following a kosher diet always look for the specific kosher symbol on our packaging.

Non-GMO Project Verified

SimplyProtein® Bars, Chips, Protein Cookies and Kids Bars

The Non-GMO Project is a trusted third-party verification service for GMO avoidance. Most SimplyProtein® products are Non-GMO Project verified so they do not contain genetically engineered organisms. Genetically modified organisms are often used to withstand herbicide application or produce their own pest resistance. Most SimplyProtein® products are Non-GMO Project verified, except for our whey bars and collagen bars.

Peanut & Nut Free

SimplyProtein® Kids Bars and SimplyProtein® Whey Bars

Bring’em to school, or work or play. Peanut (a legume) and tree nut allergies are some of the most common food allergies. If you have kids in school, you’re probably already aware that these ingredients are commonly restricted on school property. Our kids bars and whey bars are produced in a facility that is certified peanut and tree nut free.

Dairy Free
