About True North Foods

True North Foods is Manitoba's only federally-certified ruminant processing facility and was established by this desire to re-establish federally-certified beef processing capacity in the province of Manitoba. With a focus on local ownership and management, sustainability, and a commitment to quality and food safety, our plant was built for Manitobans by Manitobans.

We broke ground on our state-of-the-art facility in 2013, commenced operation the following year, and obtained our federal certification and license in 2015. Located in rural Manitoba, 6 km north of the town of Carman, yet only 70km southwest of Winnipeg, we offer proximity to producers and consumers alike.
