LIVA FOODS INC.

LIVA Foods Inc. produces a line of natural sugar alternatives derived from 100% organic dates, including date sugar, date powder, and date syrup. These products are crafted using a solar-drying process that minimizes fruit processing while preserving nutritional content, such as fiber, which helps mitigate sugar spikes. The company distinguishes its offerings by ensuring they are free from additives, fillers, and preservatives, providing a sweet flavor profile with a subtle, smooth caramel note without the aftertaste commonly associated with artificial sweeteners.

Founded by Lubaina Rakla after her personal experience managing gestational diabetes, the company aims to provide a healthier, whole-food approach to sweetness for health-conscious consumers. LIVA’s products are used as direct substitutes for refined, brown, and cane sugars in cooking, baking, and beverages. The company maintains an ethical supply chain, prioritizing fair compensation for producers, and has integrated social responsibility into its business model by partnering with Greens Park to plant a tree for every product purchased through its website. The brand has gained visibility through appearances on Dragon's Den and is available at various retail locations in Canada.
