Capers Whole Foods Market is a long-time champion of eating locally, and has always prioritized stocking local and organic foods. Capers Whole Foods Market encourages its customers to choose B.C.-grown produce by providing information about where food is from through clear signage and public education, and by increasingly featuring deli items based around ingredients that are in season and local.
Capers Whole Foods Market has helped grow the local produce industry in B.C. for more than 20 years, differentiating itself from other food retailers by dealing directly with local farmers and growers to provide customers with produce that is fresh from the farm. In the peak local growing season (late August to mid-September), approximately 80 per cent of Capers Whole Foods Market produce selection is B.C.-grown and organic, comes from farmers and growers such as Zebroff’s Organic Farm, Helmer’s Organic Farm, Rothe’s BioDynamic Orchard and Hazelmere Organic Farm, with whom Capers has cultivated relationships since 1985.
