“Wasatch’s new allergen processing capability enables us to meet the growing market need for healthy fat, healthy protein formulations using peanuts, almonds and other tree nuts. We see a rapidly increasing demand from our customers and their retail partners such as Amazon, Walmart, Costco and Sam’s Club for nut butters and formulations with nut-based ingredients,” said Mike Talbot, vice president of sales.
