At PURIS, we have always stood firm in our commitment to pioneering plant-based nutrition, championing fairness, and driving innovation in sustainable food solutions. This year we decided to move forward with filing an Antidumping and Countervailing Duty (AD/CVD) petition to investigate the imports of Chinese pea protein.

Our unwavering purpose behind this petition is clear: to address the unjust trade practices that have cast a shadow on the domestic pea protein industry. We refuse to compromise on our principles of fair competition, which lie at the heart of our mission and values.

Chinese pea protein imports have taken advantage of the American market due to alleged government subsidies by China and price manipulations by Chinese producers that threaten the very foundation of our industry. This is not merely a matter of commerce; it's about safeguarding American jobs, supporting domestic farmers, and upholding the integrity of our markets.

PURIS is unapologetically firm in its resolve to protect the interests of our industry partners, our network of farmers, our dedicated workforce, and the communities we serve. We envision a landscape where innovation thrives, sustainability is non-negotiable, and product integrity reigns supreme.

We call upon all stakeholders, from government officials to industry leaders and consumers, to stand shoulder to shoulder with us in this endeavor. Together, we will restore integrity to the pea protein market and uphold the principles of fairness, innovation, and quality that are synonymous with PURIS.
