Lyo Food is a Polish company which began creating freeze dried food for expeditions in the early 1990s. They’ve grown in Europe and are now coming to the United States with their menu.
Like the sign says, they grow all of their own ingredients on their own fields. They process everything in-house and use the freeze drying method to preserve their product because it maintains 97% of the nutrients on the food after preservation. It also offers the longest shelf life and lowest weight to nutrition ratio.
Finally, you’re going to find flavors you’ll get nowhere else. If you’re looking to upgrade your backcountry meals with clean label alternatives check out Lyo Food.

This Summer Market event marked OR’s 40th anniversary. It is also the last Outdoor Retailer show to be held in Denver as it moves back to Utah early next year. The show was much more upbeat? than the last two which took place in the throws of COVID.
Kitanica is bringing its overbuilt line of gear to Outdoor Retailer in Denver June 9th-11th (Booth 35107 Upper Level). In these times of supply chain crisis, Kitanica has managed to pump up production and capabilities to support a new body of retailers and are launching a wholesale program of its U.S. Made and globally sourced products. For more information about becoming an authorized Kitanica retailer contact Chris Cronin at Chris@kitanica.net.
