About Oxford Frozen Foods:
The seed of the family-run business was planted in a small Nova Scotia town blessed with ideal conditions for growing Wild Blueberries. The year was 1968 and Oxford Frozen Foods was a small company with plans to make this delicious fruit the natural pick of consumers around the world. Today with eight manufacturing facilities and two large farming operations within Atlantic Canada and the United States Oxford Frozen Foods is the industry leader. The company has grown to be much more than the world's largest provider of Wild Blueberries; it is also one of North America's largest producers of premium, frozen carrots and one of Canada's premier manufacturers of onion rings and battered appetizers.
