CHICKPEA TRIFECTA How we partner, from Farm to Flour The chickpea, also known as garbanzo bean, is having its moment. With consumers demanding plant-based proteins and customers seeking nutritious platforms for product innovation, chickpea consumption in the U.S. has skyrocketed by 400% between 2014 and 2019.* At Bay State Milling, our chickpea flour sales volume has more than doubled over the past year alone. Our success is a result of the strength of our supply chain partnerships and cross-functional collaboration of our team members. In this section, we proudly share our chickpea supply chain program, from breeding to sourcing to processing. *Millions of lbs, USDA Economic Research Service, BSMC Estimates
