Purity Factories Limited is a Canadian food processing company based in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Founded in 1924 by C. C. Pratt, A. E. Hickman, and W. R. Goobie, Purity manufactures traditional Newfoundland foods including cream crackers, hard bread (hardtack), Peppermint Nobs, Candy Kisses, Jam Jams (sponge cookies with apple jam filling), flavoured syrups, and jams made with local ingredients like partridgeberries.[http://purity.nf.ca/?page_id=598 "We've grown up with you"] at Purity Factories website{{Cite web|last=Keating|first=David|title=Purity has been feeding Newfoundlander's love for partridgeberries for more than 50 years {{!}} SaltWire|url=https://www.saltwire.com/atlantic-canada/lifestyles/purity-has-been-feeding-newfoundlanders-love-for-partridgeberries-for-more-than-50-years-100641530/|access-date=2021-11-15|website=www.saltwire.com|language=en}} Their hard bread has long been a staple in Newfoundland's fishing communities, where it served as both a bread substitute and an essential ingredient in fish and brewis.
