For nearly 30 years, Meadowfresh has been proud to provide fresh dairy products across the Lower Mainland of British Columbia—all crafted using local milk.
Now, the company is turning back the clock to reach customers the old-fashioned way: by bringing back the traditional at-home milk-delivery service, but this time with a modern twist.
Meadowfresh at Home is a new online service that allows consumers to order their favourite dairy and plant-based products and have them conveniently delivered to their doorstep in the Tri-Cities: Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody.
Contactless curbside pickup is also available at their dairy plant in Port Coquitlam.
“As our habits shift, so too should the offerings available to us,” says Meadowfresh marketing associate, Kate Marentette. “Our new at-home delivery service is catering to those looking for a convenient and safe way to purchase fresh dairy and plant-based products without ever having to leave the comfort of their homes.”
Launched in late October—and timed to coincide with the upcoming holiday (and baking) season—the easy-to-navigate online store currently offers a full selection of dairy and plant-based products. The website boasts an impressive selection of milk (including organic and grass fed), cream, yogurt, eggs and butter. For customers seeking plant-based alternatives, Meadowfresh at Home also offers oat, almond and soy milk.
Plant manager, Cathy St. Pierre, says Meadowfresh is proud to be a farmer-owned co-operative, offering goods made with milk from B.C. family farms. “We believe in supporting local small businesses,” she says. “That’s why we proudly service over 400 cafés and restaurants across the Lower Mainland each week.”
She adds, “while you may not have heard of us, there’s a very good chance we may be the brand of choice at your local café.”
Meadowfresh also invests in the community, employing more than 50 staff at its 22,000-sq. ft. dairy plant in Port Coquitlam.
As for being part of the Profiles of Excellence, St. Pierre says “excellence is a part of everything we do. As a customer-focused organization, we pride ourselves on our commitment to deliver prompt, dependable service to meet the growing needs of our customers.”
Meadowfresh aims to provide “optimal freshness and quality dairy products” as well as providing friendly, safe and convenient delivery and pick-up options.
What lies next for this local dairy?
“While our at-home delivery service has initially just launched in the Tri-Cities, the Meadowfresh at Home team hopes to expand this service with more product offerings and a broader delivery area in the future.” St. Pierre says, adding “no one knows what the next few months hold, but we’re looking toward the future. The sky is the limit!”
