Real Canadian maple syrup in Toronto: in the grocery aisle across the GTA, on the shelves at Costco, Shoppers Drug Mart, and HomeSense, and shipped from our Vancouver facility to Toronto and the GTA in two to four business days.
Ontario growers produce roughly 10 percent of Canada's maple syrup, and Torontonians have always had local options on the shelf. Quebec accounts for over 70 percent of world production, and the serious food shops in Toronto tend to carry single-origin Quebec syrup for its depth and consistency. Maple Terroir is one of those single-origin Quebec lines, sourced from one family farm in the Appalachian Mountains and shipped to Toronto and the GTA from our Vancouver distribution facility. Specialty buyers can also find traditional Canadian maple at St. Lawrence Market and Forbes Wild Foods downtown.
Maple Terroir is stocked at Costco, Shoppers Drug Mart, and HomeSense locations across the GTA, with the full product range available online for direct delivery to Toronto homes. The same syrup ships from this facility to Japan, South Korea, the United States, and Mexico. Toronto shoppers get the same product the international markets pay a premium for.
Every bottle single-origin from Quebec. All four Grade A classifications, sized from 50 mL travel bottles to 1 L jugs.

The honest local picture, with no put-down of the Ontario maple industry.
Ontario produces roughly 10 percent of Canada's maple syrup, second among the producing provinces. The history is real. The Elmira Maple Syrup Festival has run since 1965 and is one of the largest single-day maple events in the world. Sugarbushes operate across Wellington County, Lanark, Algonquin Park, and the Bruce Peninsula. Driving north out of Toronto in March you pass tap lines on roadside maple stands. Most Torontonians grew up with at least one Ontario-syrup bottle in the cupboard.
What changes when Toronto shoppers walk into Pusateri's, Summerhill Market, McEwan, or the maple vendors at St. Lawrence Market is the question. The premium segment in Toronto food retail concentrates on single-origin Quebec syrup for the same reason wine collectors concentrate on Burgundy: the certification stack is denser, the producer transparency is higher, and the Appalachian terroir has a longer documented track record at the international level. Quebec produces 70 percent of the world supply and 90 percent of Canada's. The competition is sharper, and the top of the Quebec premium tier sets the global benchmark.
Maple Terroir occupies that premium tier from one family farm in Quebec's Appalachian Mountains, triple-certified by Ecocert, Canada Organic, and USDA Organic. It is what serious Toronto food retailers stock when they want a real differentiator on the maple shelf, and what GTA customers order direct when the grocery aisle blends do not meet the standard. None of which takes anything away from the Ontario maple farms still running on Highway 6 north of Owen Sound. The two categories serve different buyers.
Maple Terroir is stocked at Costco, Shoppers Drug Mart, HomeSense, and Walmart locations across Toronto and the GTA, with specialty pickups available at St. Lawrence Market and Forbes Wild Foods downtown. The full product range is available online at mapleterroir.com with shipping from the Vancouver facility.

Ontario growers produce roughly 10 percent of Canada's maple syrup supply, while Quebec accounts for over 70 percent of world production. Quality varies by farm, not by province. Maple Terroir is single-origin Quebec from one family in the Appalachian Mountains, which is what most premium retailers in Toronto carry.
Maple Terroir offers all four Grade A classifications from the same Quebec farm: Golden (delicate, harvested earliest), Amber (rich, the most versatile), Dark (robust, deeper colour), and Very Dark (strong, harvested latest). The full range ships online for Toronto delivery, with select grades on shelves at Costco, Shoppers Drug Mart, HomeSense, and Walmart across the GTA. Sizes range from 50 mL travel bottles to 1 L jugs.
Most maple syrup sold in Toronto grocery stores is blended from many farms across Quebec and Ontario. Maple Terroir is single-origin from one family farm, triple-certified organic (Ecocert, Canada Organic, USDA Organic), and the only Canadian maple producer holding all three certifications at once.
