Arvand is a line of gourmet dairy products prepared from the freshest local ingredients. As a small family owned artisanal dairy, our commitment to simple, traditional recipes using wholesome, all natural ingredients has yielded the most delectable cultured dairy products. As the leading supplier of yogurts to the food service sector our products are the preferred brand of Vancouver’s top chefs and discerning craft dairy Connoisseurs.
Our daily milk supply comes directly from the farm in Fraser Valley. Milked at 6 am, the product is processed by 10 am and out for delivery the following morning, achieving maximum freshness with minimal carbon footprint.
This traditional micro dairy model allows us optimum quality control from animal feed all the way to the point of sale.
In 2001 Arvand introduced an innovative “Greek style” yogurt for the ethnic market in Vancouver. As an economical and versatile alternative to strained yogurt, it became an overnight success and has remained a top seller for decades. We have developed a wide variety of plain yogurts for every taste and commercial application. For Vancouver’s Mediterranean, Greek, Middle Eastern and South Asian community, Arvand is as good as gold.
Arvand is named after a river in the fertile crescent, the birth place of the first pastoralist societies.
