About

Based in Canada, MEJICANO FOODS INC. specializes in the production of traditional tortillas, enhancing culinary experiences with a diverse range of flavors and sizes tailored for various applications. MEJICANO FOODS INC. was founded in 1995 in Montreal, Canada, focusing on the production of high-quality tortillas.


The company has not undergone any notable changes in its business strategy or operations since its establishment. The founder's background and prior ventures are not publicly detailed. In April 2026, C. H.


Guenther & Son, Inc. acquired MEJICANO FOODS INC. to enhance its North American tortilla operations, details of the financial terms were not disclosed. Mejicano specializes in the production of high-quality tortillas crafted according to traditional Mexican methods, aimed at enhancing culinary experiences.


Their primary product offerings include a diverse range of tortillas, such as regular tortillas in sizes of 6, 7, 9, and 10 inches, whole grain variations, and specialty flavors like pesto, salsa, and cheese with jalapeño. These tortillas cater to various culinary applications, including tacos, wraps, and pizzas, providing consumers with options that combine authentic taste with modern dietary preferences, including vegan and gluten-free choices. Mejicano's products are primarily distributed in the Canadian market, particularly within Quebec, and are sold through wholesalers, retailers, and direct-to-consumer sales via online platforms. Mejicano generates revenue through a multi-faceted transaction structure that includes both B2B and direct-to-consumer sales.


The company partners with retailers and wholesalers to distribute its products, allowing for broad market penetration. Individual products such as specialty tortillas are sold at varying price points, tailored to meet the demands of both retail partners and consumers. Revenue is derived from these transactions, which involve bulk purchases by retailers, catering companies, or individual consumers seeking high-quality tortillas for home use. The focus on unique flavors and high-quality ingredients positions Mejicano favorably within the competitive landscape, fostering customer loyalty and repeat purchases.


C. H. Guenther's acquisition of Mejicano Foods in April 2026 will focus on strengthening its North American tortilla platform by adding manufacturing capacity and strategically located facilities. This will improve supply chain flexibility and enhance services to foodservice, retail, and private-label customers.


The funding from this deal will be utilized to support these initiatives.
