Inside Alaska Food Co.: Behind the Scenes of Freeze-Dry Manufacturing in Alaska

Take a behind-the-scenes tour of Alaska Food Co. in Wasilla, Alaska, the state’s only freeze-dry co-packing and manufacturing facility. In this facility tour, we explore how freeze-dried foods are made in Alaska — from raw, Alaska-grown ingredients to packaged, shelf-stable products. Join Megan Militello from the Alaska Manufacturing Association (AKMA) as she walks through Alaska Food Co.’s DEC-certified kitchen and freeze-dry operation. Learn how their Summit and R6 freeze dryers process up to 1,500 pounds of food per batch, including potatoes, carrots, fruits, kelp, and more. You’ll see how food is cooked, prepared, freeze-dried, tracked for traceability, and packaged — all inside a facility converted from a former construction yard.
