Jacques Duhaime, Owner of Duhaime Gourmet, on Building a Global Jam Business from a Quebec Family Orchard: SIAL Summer Bonus Episode
On this summer bonus episode of The Food Professor, recorded at SIAL Canada in Monteal, Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois sit down with Jacques Duhaime of Duhaime Gourmet. Jacques traces his family's path from a 1945 dairy farm to a fifth-generation Quebec orchard and a nationally distributed low-sugar jam and fruit-spread business — covering the sale of the processing arm, expansion into Japan and the U.S., private-label manufacturing, trade show strategy, and a new 90%-fruit, no-pectin spread line.
