Why Canadian White Kidney (Cannellini) Beans Stand Out

Snow-white skins, a creamy bite and 22 % protein / 17 % fibre make Canadian White Kidney Beans—also called cannellini or alubia—a chef’s favourite for Tuscan soups, minestrone, Mediterranean salads and baked casseroles. Prairie day-length and cool nights develop a firm seed coat that resists splitting in retort pouches, cans and frozen entrées, while the neutral flavour absorbs stocks, herbs and cold-pressed oils beautifully. Whether you’re formulating plant-based protein bowls or premium hummus alternatives, Grade 1 Canadian cannellini deliver consistent texture and eye-catching plate appeal.

White Kidney Beans—also called Cannellini—are larger and more elongated than Great Northern Beans. They hold their shape after long simmering and have a creamy, mildly nutty flavor that works well in Mediterranean-style soups, stews, and salads.

Bennett’s Beans sources Non-GMO White Kidney Beans from audited family farms in Ontario and Manitoba. The beans are cleaned, graded, SGS-inspected, and packaged in a BRC-certified facility to guarantee food-safety compliance for global export.

We offer 25 kg poly-lined kraft bags, 50 kg woven sacks, and 1-tonne food-grade bulk totes (FIBCs). Custom labels or private-label retail packs (454 g / 1 lb) are available on request.

Yes. Their uniform size, low split rate, and consistent hydration make them ideal for commercial canning lines. They retain a creamy texture and bright white color after retort processing.

Standard export spec is ≤ 14 % moisture and ≥ 99 % purity (foreign matter ≤ 0.2 %, damaged beans ≤ 1 %). Certificates of Analysis (CoA) and phytosanitary documents are provided with every shipment.

Keep bags or totes in a cool (≤ 20 °C), dry (< 60 % RH), and well-ventilated warehouse. Under proper storage, shelf life is 24 months from packing date without significant loss of color or cooking quality.

For household use, a 6–8 hour cold soak or 1-hour quick-soak reduces cooking time to ~45 minutes and improves digestibility. Industrial canners rely on pre-hydration tables for precise water uptake.

Absolutely. We arrange CIF, CFR, or FOB from Vancouver, Montréal, or Thunder Bay, with flexible container loading (20’ / 40’) and documentation support for smooth customs clearance.

Nutritional Benefits of Canadian White & Kidney (Cannellini) Beans

Per 100 g dry weight, Grade-1 Canadian Cannellini deliver 22 g protein, 17 g dietary fibre and just 0.9 g fat, making them a heart-healthy substitute for animal protein. They supply 333 µg folate (83 % DV) for cell renewal, 5.7 mg iron to fight anaemia, and a potassium-to-sodium ratio of 1350 mg : 2 mg that supports normal blood pressure. With a low glycaemic index (~31), these beans fit diabetic and Mediterranean-diet formulations while boosting satiety in plant-based ready meals, soups and spreads.

Composite samples (10 kg / 50 t) are sealed and archived for 12 months, while an independent SGS COA confirms non-GMO status, pesticide panel and moisture ≤ 14 %. Operations are ISO 22000 & HACCP certified, so processors and retailers receive uniform, food-safe beans—container after container.

Prairie Advantage – White Kidney Beans from Ontario & Manitoba

Canada’s Red River & Assiniboine Valleys in Manitoba and the loamy Huron-Perth belt of southwestern Ontario combine calciferous soils, warm days and cool nights—ideal for producing large, bright white kidney beans with a firm seed coat. Strict CFIA on-farm IP (Identity Preserved) programmes keep lots segregated from planting through rail loading, while the nation’s Grade No. 1 standard mandates ≤ 14 % moisture and ≥ 99 % purity before export. Annual capacity exceeds 180 000 t, giving processors a reliable, year-round supply for canning, retort pouches and plant-protein blends.

  • Large calibre: 175 – 185 count / 100 g
  • Uniform colour – zero bleaching after 30 min 100 °C retort
  • Low water absorption ratio (**1:2.1**) – shorter soak & cook times

Backed by Canada’s CFIA farm-to-export traceability, Bennett’s Grain moves up to 6 000 t of cannellini beans per month through the ports of Vancouver and Prince Rupert.
