Vermont Tortilla Company is a small food and beverage producer based in Shelburne, Vermont, that makes organic corn tortillas using the nixtamal process. Founded in 2015 by April and Azur Moulaert, the business grew out of their interest in sustainable food and authentic Mexican tortilla traditions learned during trips to Mexico, which highlighted a gap in Vermont for nixtamal-based tortillas. The tortillas are made from locally grown organic corn and produced through a traditional method that involves cooking and soaking the grain with water and lime before grinding. The company emphasizes sustainability in its approach to sourcing and production in the local Vermont context. Vermont Tortilla Company operates in the food and beverage manufacturing sector and has earned recognition for its work, including a 2020 Good Food Award in the grains category and a 2018 American Small Business Champion designation. The organization maintains a small team and focuses on delivering organic, stone-ground tortillas to Vermont consumers seeking locally produced, sustainable products.
