Supporting Beverage Brands Across Canada

Canada imports beverages through a licensed importer. Under the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations, your Canadian buyer holds the SFC licence and the preventive control plan, while the manufacturer supplies the specifications, test results and traceability records behind them.

ACMFOOD works to that split. We provide formulation, production, quality documentation and export paperwork; your importer handles the licence and the border declaration to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

Label artwork is prepared from the start for bilingual English and French copy and for the Canadian Nutrition Facts table, which follows a different format from the United States version.

Documents for Your Importer

Specifications, certificates of analysis and traceability records to support the preventive control plan.

Canadian Market Support

Formats and formulations adapted to Canadian retail, natural channel and foodservice buyers.

Beverage Manufacturing for Canada

Answers to common questions from Canadian importers, distributors and private label beverage brands.

What is the minimum order quantity for Canada?

500 cartons per SKU is the standard minimum. Several SKUs can be combined into one container, which is the usual way to start a Canadian launch without overcommitting on any single flavour.

Your Canadian business does. Under the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations the importer holds the SFC licence and maintains a preventive control plan. ACMFOOD supplies the specifications, certificates of analysis and traceability records that support it. Confirm your own obligations with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency or your customs broker.

Yes. Mandatory label information must appear in both official languages. We plan artwork around this from the first draft, because retrofitting French copy into a layout designed for English alone usually means redoing the label.

Not directly. The Canadian Nutrition Facts table uses a different format from the U.S. version, and the bilingual requirement changes the space available. Treat Canada as its own artwork, not a variant of the U.S. one.

CPTPP is in force between Vietnam and Canada and provides preferential tariff treatment, claimed through a certification of origin rather than a certificate issued by an authority. The applicable rate depends on the HS code of your specific product, so check the tariff schedule before you build your landed cost.

Vancouver for western Canada and Montreal for the east. Transit times differ substantially between the two, which affects both your inventory planning and the shelf life remaining when the container arrives. Our products carry 18 to 24 months depending on product and packaging format.
