Foodie Foray Provisions is proudly Canadian!
In terms of quantity, the United States exports of pickles represent 48% of the total quantity imported by Canada. India follows with 20%, Greece and China (5% each), Mexico (3%), Turkey (2.6%), Poland (2.5%), Spain (1.9%), Lebanon (1.6%), Egypt (1.2%), Germany (1.1%), and Italy (0.8%). This makes it very important to continue to “Buy Canadian” whenever possible.
The good news is that from a “Made in Canada” perspective, the majority of elements that make up our products are Canadian made, and we source from local Ottawa companies as much as possible. For example:
- Labels – Clabro Label Inc., Ottawa, Ontario
- Cucumbers/Tomatoes – Suntech Greenhouses, Manotick, Ontario
- Vinegar – Allen’s – Reinhart Foods, Stayner, Ontario
- Sugar – Redpath, Belleville, Ontario
- Spices – Club House – McCormick Canada, London, Ontario
- Hot Sauce – Meow That’s Hot, Ottawa, Ontario
- Honey – Crown Point Honey, Crown Point, Ontario
- Maple Syrup – Fulton’s, Pakenham, Ontario
- Sundried Tomatoes – Yupik, Montreal, Quebec
In response to the ongoing threat of tariffs we continue to closely monitor our suppliers and address potential supply chain and/or supply cost vulnerabilities. Where possible, we will transition away from goods subject to tariffs in order to keep costs low and avoid passing price increases along to the consumer.
Look for the new “Made in Canada” stickers on all of our products.
