Faribault Foods, Inc. is a mid-sized producer in the food and beverage manufacturing industry, headquartered in Faribault, Minnesota. Founded in 1895, it manufactures shelf-stable foods and beverages that are distributed to families across the United States. The company sells through its own brands, retailer private labels, and co-manufacturing arrangements, with multiple locations that support ingredient sourcing and logistics. Its business model emphasizes broad reach and reliable supply of long-shelf-life products. In 2014, Faribault Foods and Arizona Canning Company were integrated under the La Costeña umbrella, and La Costeña later acquired Faribault Foods in 2018. This places the company within a larger portfolio of canned and shelf-stable products. There have been voluntary recalls affecting certain canned black beans: a 2021 recall due to potential sealing issues, and a 2022 recall related to possible foreign material. These events highlight quality-control considerations within the shelf-stable product segment.
