Habitant Pea Soup with Smoked Ham

Habitant is a deeply rooted Canadian brand that has been a staple in kitchens since 1918. Originally founded in Montreal, Quebec, the brand is famous for its traditional French-Canadian recipes, most notably its pea soup which is crafted using dried yellow peas and savory seasonings to replicate a homemade taste.

While the brand maintains its historical identity and focus on the Canadian market, it is currently owned by the multinational food giant Campbell Soup Company. The product shown—the classic Pea Soup with Smoked Ham—continues to be manufactured in Canada, ensuring it remains a local favorite for those seeking hearty, traditional comfort food. The ultimate ownership lies with the American-based Campbell Soup Company, which manages the brand under its Canadian subsidiary.
