For the past 15
years Dor-Bel International Fine Foods has been delivering specialty
gourmet flash frozen foods directly to Calgary residents homes. Within the
last 5 years, Dor-Bel International Fine Foods has expanded
into local indoor and ourdoor farmer's markets.
Becoming involved
within the market scene has not only been great success but has also
improved the already high quality foods that Dor-Bel Fine Foods offers. It
has motivated us to find more local, natural and/or organic menu items and
has encouraged us to think more about where the foods we order come
from.
In 2009 Dor-Bel International Fine
Foods took various steps toward improving business practices.
Part of our initiative led us to create a partnership with Ocean Wise(tm).
A not for profit organization out of the Vancouver Aquarium
that offers restaurants, retailers and suppliers information
and guidence pertaining to choosing the most sustainable options for fish
and seafood. We are proud to say that we are the first retailer in Alberta
to have this partnership, but encourage all other fish and seafood
retailers to consider joining this great organization`s
efforts!
More and more we hear about how important it is to
purchase locally, not only to reduce carbon footprints but to also support
our local farmers, our local economy and local industries. Although we
have always offered local chicken and beef, our involvement within the
markets has encouraged us to find the best quality and the most naturally
raised beef and poultry available locally. We have built relationships
with local farmers`that take great pride in the end result of their
efforts, with good reason. Our chicken breast is raised locally and
naturally with no added hormones, no preseratives, no animal by-products
and no force feeding. You can taste the difference! We are proud to
say that our Bison is also to that standard and supplied by the best Bison
Company here in Alberta, Carmen Creek Gourmet Meats. Their standards,
certifications and many awards deem them the most outstanding and most
desirable supplier for Bison meat and we are proud to carry their
cuts.
In 2012 our mission is to further incorporate environmental
stewardship and awareness of our economic impact on our community into our
business model.
