Nestled in Barrie, North Barrie Market isn't your typical grocery store. It's a family-run haven for fresh, convenient food options, all while prioritizing sustainability and giving back to the community they call home.
Fresh Food for Busy Lives
Born from a family's desire for convenient access to high-quality, healthy meals, North Barrie Market understands the everyday struggle of juggling work, family, and the ever-present question: "What's for dinner?" That's why they've created a haven for busy families who crave delicious, high-quality meals without sacrificing convenience.
They offer a wide selection of prepared meals, alongside fresh produce, top-notch meats from their 8-foot butcher counter, and essential pantry staples. Their friendly staff is always happy to greet customers, offer supper recommendations, and even help carry groceries to the car. This family-oriented approach creates a welcoming and helpful atmosphere, making grocery shopping less of a chore and more of a positive experience.
Customer Service, Cleanliness, and Trust
North Barrie Market prioritizes three core values: exceptional customer service, unparalleled cleanliness, and unwavering trust.
Their commitment to these values shines through in every interaction. Their friendly staff is knowledgeable and eager to assist, ensuring a positive and satisfying shopping experience. The store itself is meticulously maintained, exceeding government cleanliness standards. And the owners are readily available, fostering a sense of trust and transparency with their customers.
Local Sourcing, Less Waste
North Barrie Market champions sustainability through local sourcing. By partnering with local farms and producers, they minimize carbon emissions associated with long-distance transportation. They also promote bulk purchasing to reduce packaging waste and actively compost unsold food scraps, diverting them from landfills.
This dedication to a "non-waste food facility strategy" ensures responsible resource use and minimizes their environmental impact.
Giving Back to the Community They Serve
North Barrie Market believes in being a good neighbour. They actively support local charities like The Seasons Centre for Grieving Children and Gilda's Club, organizations dedicated to supporting those in need.
During their anniversary weekend, they went a step further, donating $1 per pound of striploin and ribeye sold to the Barrie Baycats' "send a kid to camp" program. This initiative helps underprivileged children experience the joys of summer camp, creating lasting memories and fostering a sense of community.
