Our story
Proudly founded in BC, Canada
Island City Baking has baked bread since 1990.
Headquartered in Richmond, BC, with a dedicated Frozen Dough Division in Burnaby, BC, we proudly provide artisan bread and frozen dough to distributors and retailers across North America. For more than three decades, we've focused on combining experience, consistency and care to create breads that customers trust every day.
With SQF and CFIA certified facilities and state-of-the-art equipment, we’re committed to delivering artisan quality at scale. We invest in the finest technology and take the time needed for proper fermentation, careful mixing and precise shaping. Using all-natural ingredients and premium Canadian-grown wheat, we craft clean-label products that champion Canadian agriculture and time-honoured baking methods.
At Island City Baking, exceptional bread reflects the people behind it. Our bakers bring a variety of techniques and traditions, blending global craft with Canadian innovation. Their expertise, paired with our commitment to quality ingredients and continuous improvement, allows us to honour the heritage of breadmaking while meeting the evolving needs of our customers.
