π Celebrating 30+ Years of Dedication to the PKU Community
For more than three decades, Stephen and Linda Fletcher have dedicated their lives to improving the quality of life for people living with PKU and other inherited metabolic disorders.
Since founding Firstplay Dietary Foods in 1993, their compassion and vision have transformed the world of low protein nutrition through the Promin brand β developing over 70 innovative products from fresh breads and pastas to quick-cook meals and snacks. ππ
But their story is about more than just food β itβs about care, collaboration and community. From their early work producing pasta for the Taranis brand in France to the creation of Promin Fresh Bread, which helped a young child enjoy a school sandwich just like their friends, the Fletchers have always put patients and families first. β€οΈ
As Firstplay enters its fourth decade, their legacy continues to shine β inspiring new ideas, new recipes, and the same unwavering commitment to helping people live well with PKU.
