Idahoan Foods
Idahoan Foods is a consumer packaged goods company based in Idaho Falls, Idaho, founded in Lewisville, Idaho in 1960. They specialize, and are the market leader, in the production of dehydrated potato products, which are sold primarily under the brand Idahoan. The company is known for their unique 'fresh-dried' process which preserves the taste and texture of the fresh potatoes. They employ approximately 800 people at the height of their production cycle.

Idahoan Foods operates three production facilities in Idaho and source all of their fresh potatoes from growers within the state of Idaho. Each of these facilities washes, peels, cooks and mashes the fresh potatoes and then removes the water so the products are ready to be used in homes, restaurants and businesses across the country. Idahoan Foods also markets and sells a line of hearty potato-based soups in the retail channel.

Idahoan Foods also has a line of Foodservice products, for restaurants, school meals, cafeterias, and more. This line includes dehydrated potatoes such as mashed potatoes, hash browns, & casseroles.

Our Story
Over six million years ago, stretching and thinning of the Earth’s crust caused movement along the Teton fault forming the most beautiful and dramatic mountain range…the result set the stage to grow the most famous potatoes in the world.

1837 - Henry H. Spalding, a Presbyterian missionary, becomes the first potato farmer within the borders of what is now known as the State of Idaho.

1872 - Luther Burbank develops the first “Burbank Russet” potato that eventually finds its home in Idaho. The desirable texture of the Burbank Russet makes it a perfect candidate for America’s Favorite Mashed Potatoes.

1890 - Idaho is admitted to the Union as the 43rd state on July 3rd, 1890. With over 83,000 square miles of rugged, beautiful terrain, it truly earns its nick name—The Gem State. To us at Idahoan, the most precious gems of all are Idaho Potatoes.

1942 - In an effort to find more shelf stable meals for our troops, the first potato dehydration process was developed for the military. While this early, primitive process is still used by many dehydrated potato sellers to this day, Idahoan strives for higher quality.

1951 - A group of local Lewisville, Idaho growers decide to join forces to start a potato dehydration plant—the Idahoan brand was started.

1990 - Idahoan developed a proprietary, innovative dehydration process that better preserves natural potato taste and texture.
