This Means So Much!

As many of you know, the interview highlighted some of the challenges we and other Canadian businesses are facing.
 
It's a complex situation. But seeing your support has been like a shot of adrenaline. It's proof that what we're doing matters, and it's fueling our determination to keep pushing forward.


Your support does so much: it keeps our small business running, it amplifies our voice, and it connects us with amazing people like you. Every order, every shared post, every positive review – it all makes a difference.

We're committed to being transparent with you. These challenges are real, but so is our belief in what we do and our belief in this community. We are working hard to navigate this situation and continue to bring you the food you love.

This momentum is so important. It's not just about us; it's about building a community that values delicious, nourishing, and ethically sourced food. It's about showing that small businesses can thrive even in the face of adversity. And it's about creating a food system that's better for everyone.

Ready to keep the momentum going? Here are 6 ways you can help!


1. Spread the word:

  • Tell everyone you know about Kula Foods! Share our story and help us reach even more people. Why not forward this blog to a friend who loves delicious, ethically sourced food? Word-of-mouth is so powerful for small businesses like ours.

5. Engage your grocers:

  • Urge retailers to carry more local and black owned businesses on shelves where you shop as this has been a significant barrier for us and other small businesses. Be a champion for local and Black-owned businesses! The next time you're at your local grocery store, ask the manager or customer service representative if they carry Kula Foods. Let them know that you'd love to see our products on their shelves. This simple request can make a big difference!

6. Shop local:

  • Look for local tags when shopping. Support your local economy! When you're grocery shopping, keep an eye out for "local" tags and choose products from businesses in your community. This helps support local farmers, producers, and small businesses.
