Guest guest Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I asked them, here is what they say. maybe you could strike up a group of vegetarians in Canada that would be willing to go in on a Quorn run (sounds like a drug deal, LOL) CS-74010 27 August 2008 Dear Chanda Thank you for your recent contact regarding Quorn products. For your information all Quorn products are only made here in the UK and are branded and sold only by ourselves. We have investigated selling Quorn products in Canada in reply to enquiries from other consumers. The Canadian authorities specify minimum nutritional values for key nutrients for any 'simulated poultry substitutes' to be sold in Canada. As they currently stand, most of our products would not meet all of these criteria, and to achieve this, in some cases, it would be necessary to fortify Quorn products with some of these nutrients. Fortification does not at present meet with our brand values. We are therefore unable to advise when or if we will be able to sell Quorn products in Canada. As Quorn products are sold frozen, it is not feasible to dispatch small quantities for direct sale. Unfortunately, we do not sell our products direct in the USA this is only through distributors. UNFI distribute our products in Vermont, and may be able to work with you. We have heard from Canadians in the past that have done " Quorn runs " to the US taking coolers and purchasing products there and bringing back home to Canada for personal use. Hope this information has been helpful. Feel free to contact us again with any additional questions or comments.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 thank you very much for finding that out. I know of other products that are not sold in Canada also and for the same reasons. Again, thank you. I guess that I will be doing a shopping trip to the US. The border is only 45 minutes away and the first grocery store is about 2 hours. Will go onto the website to find the closest one for me.
