The Toronto Market Company is a marketplace that sells and delivers curated products from small businesses to consumers in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area.
Due to the pandemic, the company moved away from an in-person market to an online experience that continues to provide artisanal goods to consumers through contactless delivery and pickup. The Toronto Market Company works with over 100 independent vendors and offers almost 3,000 high-quality products, many of which are food-focused.
In honor of the Toronto Market Company's one-year anniversary, the brand is expanding its delivery service to the Simcoe and Muskoka regions. This expansion will bring these premium artisanal products to Canadian cottage country just in time for the summer season.
