Dor-Bel International Fine Foods is a family
owned and operated business. We are so grateful for the loyal support we
have had from our customers and are committed to continuing to offer the
highest quality flash frozen foods available.
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 outdoor 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! Currently
our fish and shellfish menu is aprroximately 80% Ocean Wise approved, we
are aiming to have a fully sustainable menu by the end of this
year.
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.
