Overview

Winland Foods manufactures private label and branded food products for retailers, co-packers, and foodservice customers, with a range that includes pasta, sauces, dressings, syrups, jams, pie fillings, pita chips, and dry dinners. It produces items for both private-label programs and its own consumer brands, selling to mainstream grocers, big-box retailers, e-commerce platforms, and industrial customers, often through co-packing arrangements. The company operates with vertical integration and a broad network of facilities across North America and Europe, and in 2025 merged with La Doria to form Windoria, expanding global scale and supply-chain capabilities. Its goal is to meet growing demand for private-label foods by providing a wide manufactured portfolio and using Windoria’s platform to serve retailers and brands worldwide.
