English Bay’s roots in the food industry began in 1983 with the English Bay Batter Inc. The famous cookie dough recipe that owner Jack Seguin developed to supply his two retail stores (one in English Bay Vancouver, hence the name), soon grew into large scale manufacturing with 6 plants and north American wide distribution.
English Bay Blending division began its operations in 2001 in a 43,000 sq ft facility in Delta BC. We added a Fine Chocolates division in 2007 followed by a bar line in 2018.
Our commitment to excellence in manufacturing food products of the highest quality has always been our mandate.
Our focus is co-manufacturing and private label. Created from your recipe or a custom formula derived by our in-house Research and Development team, our attention to detail ensures the products we produce will exceed your expectations.
“We know that the quality and future of our business depends on the quality and vision of the people in our organization. Retaining a long-term crew is key” explains Jack
