The Right Tools for the Job

Our goal at Weaver is to provide the best popcorn at the best value possible. And that means setting the highest quality standards in the industry. The use of state-of-the-art technology is fundamental to Weaver achieving those high standards.

For example, our corn is grown from hybrid seeds we've developed for best taste and tenderness. Our fields are sown and harvested using farm management techniques that maximize yield without sacrificing the environment. And after harvest, every kernel is properly conditioned in Weaver-designed storage facilities.

We use high-speed optical scanners to inspect and sort each kernel that flows down the line, discarding any kernels that don't pass our rigid requirements. In fact, we inspect more than 750 billion kernels each year.

After visual inspection, each batch of popcorn is test-popped before it is shipped. If the popcorn doesn't meet our high standards even once, the entire load is rejected.

The popcorn that meets our high standards is packed into state-of-the-art packaging designed to ensure freshness.

Yet even with all of these quality processes in place, we regularly evaluate our packaging methods, looking for ways to reduce package size. Smaller packaging means reduced costs and improved freshness.

Technology keeps our products fresh. That's why we can say with confidence that Weaver popcorn is the best popcorn around. Because the freshest popcorn is the best tasting popcorn. It's that simple.
