Stevia First is an early stage agribusiness focused on industrial-scale production of stevia, the all-natural zero-calorie sweetener that is rapidly transforming the food and beverage industry.
We are an early stage agri-bio business focused on cultivation of stevia, the all-natural zero-calorie sweetener that is transforming the food and beverage industry.
Our goal is to create a first of kind vertically-integrated stevia enterprise in North America, drawing on the technological expertise of researchers and growers in one of the world’s most productive and innovative agricultural regions, California’s Central Valley.
Through utilization of fermentation-based production, advanced plant breeding, and mechanized harvesting techniques, Stevia First Corp. is seeking to control the quality of stevia from soil-to-sale, and to distinguish ourselves from high-cost producers overseas through supplying a reliable and great-tasting North American supply of stevia products.
