Interview with Sampath, President of Wild Tusker

LCG Foods sat down with Wild Tusker's President, Sampath, and asked him some questions to better understand the brand's vision, core values, and other topics that we thought potential retail partners would want to know.

 

What motivated you to start your company and create the products that we see today? 

As immigrants, we wanted to blend our experiences with the Canadian lifestyle. We wanted to learn from Canada and offer something Canada and the entire world can benefit from by linking Canada with the world via food - in turn,  creating opportunities for all. 

 

What are your company’s core values?

Equality, balance for our employees in work and personal time, sharing happiness, and having a mission in our business.

 

If you could tell a retailer three things about what makes your brand different, what would they be?

a. Highest quality and reasonably priced products.

b. Fair treatment to all involved in the entire chain: the environment, farmers, factory staff, distributors, retailers, consumers.

c. A part of the proceeds of all our products' sales goes towards the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage in Sri Lanka. 


What are some of the challenges that you’ve overcome to bring your business to its current state?


Being newcomers to the country, one of the biggest challenges was developing an understanding of the sales and marketing structure in Canada.

 

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Swimming, walking, and helping others start new businesses to create new income streams and employment opportunities globally.
