We put proven global brands on Canadian shelves.
Diaspora Foods is a Toronto importer and distributor. We source food and beverage brands that already lead their home markets — across Africa, Europe, and Asia — and handle everything between origin and aisle: compliance, labelling, logistics, and replenishment.
From origin to aisle, one accountable partner
Retailers deal with one Canadian company — we carry the rest of the chain.
-
Source at origin
We buy directly from producers and brand owners in their home countries — no chain of middlemen. That keeps flavour profiles true, supply steady, and provenance traceable.
-
Make it retail-ready
Every SKU is prepared for Canadian retail before it ships: CFIA-compliant documentation, bilingual English–French labelling, barcodes, and packaging that holds up on the shelf.
-
Distribute across Canada
We import, warehouse, and deliver to grocery, convenience, and mass retail — and keep the shelf stocked once the first order sells through.
Sourced where the brands are loved
The products we carry are not inventions for export — they are the brands people grew up with, bought from the companies that make them. Direct relationships at origin mean authenticity we can document and supply we can promise.
- Direct producer and brand-owner relationships
- True-to-origin recipes and flavour profiles
- Consistent, traceable supply chains
Built for Canadian distribution
Import is the easy half. The work is making a product ready for a Canadian planogram — and keeping it there. Our operation is structured around Canadian regulatory, labelling, and logistics requirements from day one.
- CFIA-compliant importation and documentation
- Bilingual labelling and Canadian nutrition facts
- Warehousing and delivery to retail across Canada
What we bring in
