Odd Burger Corporation continues its expansion in the Canadian retail market, securing a major retail listing with Calgary Co-op. This strategic move will see the company’s full line of consumer packaged goods (CPG) available at 22 Calgary Co-op locations in and around Calgary.
The plant-based food innovator currently offers five frozen retail products, including its Crispy ChickUn Fillet, Chickpea Burger, Smash Burger, ChickUn Pretenders, and Breakfast Sausage. With this latest distribution deal, Odd Burger significantly increases its retail footprint, nearly doubling its distribution points and reinforcing its commitment to making plant-based fast food more accessible to consumers.
“We are very excited to partner with Calgary Co-op to expand our retail presence in the Alberta market,” said James McInnes, CEO and Co-Founder of Odd Burger. “We are proud to produce our food at our Canadian manufacturing facility, using primarily Canadian-grown ingredients, and we are excited to work with Calgary Co-op to further their mission to support local producers.”
Calgary Co-op, a trusted grocery retailer serving Calgarians since 1956, has a strong reputation for sourcing local and Canadian products. This alignment underscores a shared commitment to supporting Canadian businesses and providing customers with fresh, high-quality food options.
“We are proud to support a Canadian-owned and operated business like Odd Burger,” said James Lelonde, Meat Category Director at Calgary Co-op. “We see tremendous potential for the Odd Burger retail line with our customers and we are thrilled to make them available at all of our retail locations.”
As a pioneering force in plant-based fast food, Odd Burger operates both as a franchised restaurant chain and a food technology company. Its vertically integrated supply chain, smart kitchen technology, and focus on sustainability have positioned it as a leader in the growing plant-based food sector.
