Sourcing

An independent Calgary distributor

Bow River Fiber is an independent, Calgary-based specialty ingredient distributor. Psyllium husk isn't grown domestically — we source lab-verified husk directly from primary processors and supply food producers and artisans across Western Canada, in the retail and bulk formats they need.

  1. Inventory intake

    Incoming shipments are logged and held until batch testing clears them for release.

  2. Batch testing

    Every batch is lab-verified for purity, swell volume, and moisture before it enters inventory.

  3. Warehousing

    Cleared inventory is stored by mesh size and grade at our Calgary, AB warehouse.

  4. Batch allocation

    Retail and wholesale orders are allocated from tested inventory and packed to order.

  5. Distribution

    Orders ship from Calgary across Western Canada, the rest of the country, and beyond.

"We switched suppliers for the mesh consistency alone. Every 25kg bag performs the same in the mixer, batch after batch."

FAQ

Questions we get a lot

Can I get a sample before I order?

Yes — request a sample pack along with our spec sheet using the form above. Most samples ship within 2 business days.

Can you do private label?

Yes, on orders above our 500kg MOQ. We pack under your brand to your specification for mesh size, bag weight, and labeling.

Is this gluten-free?

Yes. Psyllium husk is naturally gluten-free, though it's packed in a facility that also handles wheat-based products. Let us know if your order needs a dedicated allergen-free run.

Do you ship internationally?

Wholesale shipments move from our Calgary warehouse, with export quotes available on request.

What's your MOQ and lead time?

500kg minimum order, with a typical 2–4 week lead time ex-warehouse Calgary once your order and specs are confirmed.
