Food Promise to Canadians
M&M Food Market is the only national food retailer in Canada that can offer customers a full food portfolio of products that have absolutely no artificial colours, flavours, or sweeteners. This “Real Food Promise” resulted in a complete overhaul of the food portfolio, which our team continues to review and adapt — with particular focus on sodium reduction, as well as saturated fats and sugars. Our recent “Prepared with Care” campaign highlights the stories behind M&M Food Market products. Whether it be home-grown and handpicked fresh vegetables from the Holland Marsh or expertly seasoned and slow-cooked Beef Pot Roast, our products are prepared with the same care and attention you would use at home. Our in-store team is there to provide a personalized shopping experience and share their passion for M&M Food Market’s wide array of food.
Food Innovation
One area of focus for the business has been on the Prepared Meals category with a wide variety of Meal Kits including Jambalaya, Beef Stroganoff and Chicken Masala that are ready in less than 20 minutes and offer full servings of protein and vegetables. These stovetop meal kits are quick, easy to prepare, and create a delicious meal in minutes for those families and individuals who need something fast and delicious. These high-quality innovative products can be assembled and personalized quickly and have become both staff and customer favourites. M&M Food Market Products provide a variety of options for specific dietary needs across many categories of our products. We have partnered with the Canadian Celiac Association to provide their certification on many gluten-free dishes which provide our customers options without sacrificing quality and taste including our gluten-free Stuffed Potatoes, Country Style Chicken Breasts, Kabobs, and TOO TALL Cakes.
Innovative, cuttingedge packaging
We’ve leveraged a revolutionary packaging technology that flash freezes, locking in all the flavours and nutrients and then vacuum seals the product to improve the product’s shelf life. The result is incredible looking and tasting food. Each product in this new packaging is microwavable and ready in five minutes — no need to stir midway through. The film covering the food rises, creating a bubble that essentially steams the meal to perfection. Great for lunches, a snack for your insatiable teens or a meal for your elderly parents, available in different delicious varieties
E-commerce at M&M Food Market
Today’s consumer is looking for quick and easy meal solutions and M&M Food Market makes the shopping experience just as fast, which was never more relevant than during the COVID-19 crisis. The M&M Food Market Click & Collect program has been a much-desired alternative to shopping in store for our customers. And, just recently, M&M Food Market launched a national delivery program to two-thirds of stores across the country, which is available in St. John’s. In our continued efforts to support our valued customers, we have also just recently launched a curbside pick-up initiative at all of our stores during the COVID-19 pandemic.
