Our Mission

Build public trust in Canada’s food system through transparent communications, collaboration, rigorous research, and tailored resources.

Who We Are

Canadians have questions about food — where it comes from, who’s producing it, and how. Their healthy curiosity is why we exist.

It’s not about supporting a certain outcome. We want to make sure that Canadians, who are bombarded with contradictions, have the balanced information they need about food to make informed choices that are right for them and their families.

The Canadian Centre for Food Integrity (CCFI) is a not-for-profit charitable organization whose members and partners represent the diversity of today’s food system — from farmers, ranchers, and food companies to universities, non-governmental organizations, restaurants, retailers, food processors, financial institutions, seed companies, and transportation providers. We also collaborate with tech innovators, environmental organizations, packaging and distribution firms, healthcare and nutrition bodies, water management specialists, and energy providers.Our Role

CCFI is dedicated to advancing public trust in Canada’s food system. By focusing on research-driven insights, we create opportunities for meaningful collaboration, foster shared values, and provide tools to help the sector meet evolving Canadian expectations.

CCFI operates at the intersection of Canadians, the food system, and policy influencers—bridging understanding, fostering collaboration, and driving trust through transparent, research-driven communication.

How can the Canadian Centre for Food Integrity help?

Are you passionate about food and farming?  Do you believe Canadians deserve credible information about their food?

Give back to the sector you feel so passionately about and help us build momentum for earning trust in food and farming.  It's time.

Your individual charitable donation is added together with many others from across the country, across supply chains and sectors.  Together, anyone who believes in the value of earning public trust, contributes to research, training, dialogue and resources that benefit the entire food system - and every Canadian consumer who is looking for credible information about their food.

The Canadian Centre for Food Integrity is a registered charity formed to help Canada's food system earn trust.
