Organic Food / Corporate Ownership

Cornucopia Institute, an organic food thinktank, links to a chart of corporate ownership of major (American) organic food producers. Some of these brands (Celestial Seasonings, Rice Dream, Ben & Jerry's, Kellogg's) are also available in Finland; you'll get a nice view of who owns what in this growing industry.

The trend towards consolidation is quite clear.

The chart is developed by Dr Phil Howard, a professor at Michigan State University.

Cornucopia Institute's blog is here.
