"In the restaurant, we don't have the luxury of 'average.' Every preserve and condiment in this line has passed the ultimate test: the discerning palate of a guest at a 7-course tasting menu. If it isn't good enough for the restaurant line, it never makes it into the jar." — Chef Kim MacPherson

Lupin Pantry's products are crafted to be ready straight from the jar. We’ve done the reducing, fermenting, and balancing for your customers with ingredients sourced from our farm, local farmers and suppliers. At home, in the kitchen, your customers will enjoy a professional plating experience in seconds.
When you stock Lupin, you're selling our chef’s guarantee of performance.

Co-Branded Partnerships
Our Signature, Your Stamp
We offer tailored co-branding opportunities that allow your logo to sit alongside ours. This is the ideal solution for boutique gift box companies, luxury real estate firms, and high-end corporate retreats.
How does the co-branding process work?
Once you select your product, our design team works with you to integrate your logo onto our packaging or labels. We ensure the final product adheres to both our brand standards and your visual guidelines.
Is there a minimum volume for co-branded orders?
Yes the MOQ is 500 units.
Why choose co-branding over a standard wholesale order?
Co-branding turns a product into a "limited edition" collaboration. It prevents price-shopping and makes your gift boxes or corporate offerings feel exclusive and impossible to find elsewhere.
Can we co-brand seasonal items?
Absolutely. Our seasonal "Chef’s Specials" are highly sought after for co-branded holiday hampers. We recommend booking these 6–8 weeks in advance due to high demand.
Book a call or email us at wholesale@lupindining.ca to explore the options.
