Ghost of a flea

Dan On first came to Canada some 20 years ago, with just $10 in his pocket and a desire to succeed in his new homeland. Today, he is President of Dan-D Foods Ltd., which employs 60 people at a 5,500 square metre facility in Richmond, British Columbia. The company also has a manufacturing plant in Binh Duong Province—the heart of Vietnam’s cashew growing region—where kernels are purchased from local growers, then graded, roasted and packaged for export to independent retail stores and food chains throughout North America.
