When the original founders of
Westbrae Natural opened the doors of their retail grocery store in 1970, Bob Gerner and Kristin Brun offered their customers homemade granola, organic vegetables from Bob's garden, organic fruits from local farmers and whole grain baked goods using Kristin's recipes. In the late 1980s,
Westbrae Natural was sold to a group of food-savvy investors. No longer a retail business, the company (now located in southern California), continued to grow. The Research and Development Department expanded the
Westbrae Natural line and achieved leadership in the natural products industry! This history created the foundation for
Westbrae Natural today.
Westbrae Natural continues to develop and extend their line of natural foods, maintaining the original philosophy stated by Kirsten Brun, "let's do something for the planet, and let's do something good for the people on both sides of the counter!"
