Aurora Products, Inc. is a mid-sized manufacturing company based in Orange, Connecticut, founded in 1998 by Stephanie Blackwell and later joined by her son Matthew; it remains family-owned and operated. It started with dried fruit, nuts, and candy and has since expanded to a full line that includes dried fruits, granolas, trail mixes, salad toppings, raw, roasted, and candied nuts, as well as chocolate- and yogurt-covered confections. All products are certified free of artificial additives, preservatives, and retentioners. The Aurora Natural Brand is established in the northeast grocery channel, and the company provides private-label development for retail partners, delivering shelf-ready, own-brand lines. The company's operations emphasize sustainability and community engagement, including packaging with recycled plastics, biodiesel-powered transportation, energy-efficient facilities, and support of Habitat for Humanity.
