Retail Store

Edible British Columbia is located in the heart of Vancouver – literally and figuratively. Granville Island is where locals and visitors, professional chefs and passionate foodies congregate to experience the best in BC cuisine. With more than 12 million visitors a year, Granville Island is truly one of the top public markets anywhere in the world, and Edible BC is proud to be a key part of its vibrant, dynamic setting.

Edible BC is the largest store of its kind in Canada, dedicated to showcasing the very best of what is being produced in our beautiful province by our many artisan producers. While you can find many of the products at your local farmer’s market, or even some items in major grocery chains, Edible BC prides itself on being a one-stop-shop for the best of BC. Our staff are very knowledgeable on the products and their use, and also the producers behind them. They are also very well versed in our province’s food and wine culture, and are more than happy to help you find that perfect ingredient or gift.

With more than 800 unique products (and growing!), it’s hard to know where to start.  But with Granville Island’s only tasting bar, you can try almost all of the products available in the store before you buy.

On weekends and special occasions, visiting chefs and food artisans from around the province will also stop by share what they do with all these amazing products produced right in our backyard.

So the next time you are coming down to the Island, or are visiting Vancouver, be sure to come by and visit us so you can stock up on the best of BC! And if you can’t make it down, visit our online store, where all 800+ products can be purchased and shipped anywhere in the world.

hbcANNOUNCING EBC at HBC

After nearly four years of incredible success at our Granville Island Retail location, Edible British Columbia is opening a satellite store in downtown Vancouver’s historic Hudson Bay store.  On Saturday, November 7, 2009, EBC will open at HBC, with a mini retail space showcasing our top 100 products from across BC, plus some favourites from our brand new Edible Canada line.  

Becoming a part of The Hudson Bay Company, especially leading into the Olympic Winter Games, is certainly an honour, according to Edible British Columbia founder and president, Eric Pateman.  “HBC is the oldest commercial corporation in North America and is one of the oldest in the world, incorporated in 1670. And with VANOC opening an Olympic Superstore in the downtown Vancouver Bay, the attention and traffic over the next year will be outstanding – not only for Edible BC, but for all the small artisan culinary producers that we’ll be highlighting.”

The Edible BC satellite store will be located on the food floor, beside the Nespresso Boutique.  The retail space will be staffed by The Bay employees, and while tours and events cannot be booked at this location, brochures and information about all of EBC’s culinary events will be available.  Shoppers will also be able to purchase EBC’s popular culinary gift baskets – perfect for the foodie on your list.

The EBC space also includes a full professional demo kitchen, where we will welcome ongoing tastings and demonstrations by local producers.

 

Customer Feedback:

“Hi. I was on vacation and purchased a number of wonderful items in your store–black sesame salt, flower shortbread etc  Last Saturday evening a staff member recommended the Cannery Restaurant (a young friendly candid woman with brown hair). I wanted to thank her because this was the most amazing seafood restaurant I have ever been to in North America–beating out places in NYC and the Hamptons.  It was truly worth the taxi trip through the gated port  (I am from NY and my friend was from Switzerland) I had the black cod and sizzling mussels with capers pine nuts and chorizo–perfectly cooked, delicious. She was very helpful and provided us with a map, reservations, a list of restaurants. She is an asset to your business and I will definitely purchase future gifts from your online store. Thanks again Sandra.”
