Noodles that Feed Our World

Why Ramen Noodles?

Embraced by over 5 billion people worldwide, instant ramen is a universally loved packaged food that offers unmatched convenience. In a market ripe for innovation, envision transforming a humble cup of ramen into a delicious healthy meal with 20 grams of high-quality protein. Our products shift perceptions, turning this everyday meal into an opportunity to increase the health of our communities.

Leveraging Ramen to Provide Advanced Nutrition

Borealis Foods redefines the ramen category by combining functional food development know-how with production and distribution expertise. We bring:

Innovative food science to produce nutritious, high-protein, and sustainable products.
Affordable, mass-produced meals that don’t compromise on flavor and palatability.
Highly accessible meals that are widely available and convenient to prepare

Noodles That Nourish Our Students

The impact of our ramen continues beyond retail. We developed Woodles, the nation's first whole grain-rich ramen noodle designed for K-12 foodservice. The future minds of our planet should have food that is nutritious and delicious, so we made whole grain-rich and high-protein ramen noodles to help power their days.

Ramen That Provides Responsible Relief

Our meals not only alleviate hunger during crises by providing essential calories, they also provide more comprehensive nutrition through the addition of complete protein, helping address the more intricate issue of malnutrition and its long-term effects on human health. With the added advantage of being shelf-stable and versatile - consumable either raw or hydrated - these meals represent a significant stride toward delivering more responsible aid in times of need.

Noodles That Are Widely Distributed

Our products are lovingly made in the USA by our wholly owned company, Palmetto Gourmet Foods. They can be found in more than 30,000 stores throughout the U.S. and Canada (and soon Europe) including top retailers such as Walmart, Costco, Aldi and others.

Noodles That Are Exceptionally Produced

Our uniquely U.S.-based plant has a mass production capacity of up to 1,800 meals per minute – the equivalent of 600,000,000 meals per year. Always striving to produce the highest quality products our Palmetto Gourmet Foods team has achieved a BRCGs food safety standard rating of AA+ - the highest possible rating awarded.
