Our News & Events
Where does the food we serve come from?
This is obviously a question we are asked a lot these days so we thought we would share some information with our community.
The main food supplier to all Bowen restaurants is Sysco Foods Canada.
70% of all the products carried by Sysco Canada are sourced and produced here is Canada.
15% are sourced internationally...mostly paper and packaging products as well as specialty foods.
...only 15% come directly from the US...this is mostly citrus, melons and stone fruits.
Mexico is the main grower for things like avocados and lettuces.
British Columbia farmers are a major supplier of produce to Sysco in this market...I have attached a few images that show the annual growing cycles for BC produce...this may help guide peoples decisions when it comes to what to buy at different times of the year.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.0 CommentsComment on Facebook

US liquors are back on the shelves, but that does not mean we should forget the value and quality of our Canadian made products.
Let's celebrate Canadian Rye this weekend!
Thanks to Josh Keith Young we have some great new cocktails to celebrate with!

Sell what US product you have and don’t reorder, please. š ššØš¦
Put flags on the shelves. In the days of a Trade Agreement that wasn't allowed to happen, but now? Clearly the USA toilet paper version is worthy of a flush until there is good reason to think differently. Please dispose other trash in the waste bin, not the toilet. Thank you.
This. Thank you, Brad.
