Gurnee, IL. (PRWEB) November 16, 2007

On Wednesday, November 14, 2007 at its annual gala in Saskatchewan, the Canadian Agri-Marketer Association (CAMA) awarded Linda Pizzey, Founder of Pizzey’s Nutritionals, the 2007 Agri-Marketer of the Year Award. The “Agri Award” honors outstanding accomplishment in Canadian agricultural marketing and is presented to those who demonstrate innovative leadership in meeting the challenges of today’s constantly changing economic environment. CAMA, a network of agricultural marketing professionals located in five Canadian provinces promotes and develops excellence in the marketing of agricultural products, services and programs. Throughout the year each chapter provides their members with educational and networking opportunities.

Linda was recognized as an industry standout for her work in premium milled flaxseed production. With Pizzey’s Nutritionals, Linda has become an expert in her field and is regarded by many as having superior market and industry savvy. Her ability to foresee trends and to utilize innovative marketing ideas to ride those trends successfully, places her at the forefront of Canadian Agricultural marketing. Because of her extensive knowledge of flaxseed farming, milling, harvesting and nutrition, Linda is sought after by national agricultural agencies, such as Flax Canada 2015, in its pursuit of health claims for flaxseed.

“Linda has consistently been in tune to her industry and its ever changing market,” explained Kelley Fitzpatrick, Director of Health and Nutrition for Flax Canada 2015.

Founded in 1990, Linda operated Pizzey’s Nutritionals for 2 years before husband Glenn Pizzey, a flax enthusiast and dedicated member of Flax Growers Western Canada joined the company. The couple had long recognized the immense nutritional benefit of flaxseed and the market potential for such a product. Expanding from providing their lone product, Flax’n Honey Bread, at local farmer’s market to the largest flaxseed supplier in North America, Pizzey’s now has offices in Angusville, Manitoba and Gurnee, IL. Utilizing an innovative technology that guarantees the consistency, stability and quality of her product, Linda has positioned Pizzey’s Nutritionals as the standout among other flaxseed suppliers.

“The MeadowPure™ brand of flaxseed that we provide to our customers allows them to be confident in their products”, explained Linda. “They know that because of our selection, cleaning and stabilization process they are getting a quality product each time.”

Pizzey’s Nutritionals was founded upon the principle that a growing market opportunity for flaxseed ingredients, driven by mounting nutritional and medical evidence of its benefits, should be anchored upon a foundation of good business practices and sound science. Pizzey’s flaxseed products are developed through scientific research that aims to determine the optimum processing technologies to ensure highly nutritious and stable ingredients.
