Our Story

Here at Market 49, we believe that to have a great tasting quality-made meal you shouldn't have to be in the kitchen all day. We know you have a lot going on and when you come home the last thing you want to worry about is what to have for dinner or what to make for the family. That's where we come in. 

As a local, proudly Canadian owned business, we believe in highlighting our BC producers and sourcing as many local ingredients as possible. We know you care where your food comes from, and so do we. 

With over 100+ years of combined expertise in the hospitality industry, you can trust that Market 49 will always bring the absolute best to your dinner table. We are devoted to ensuring each one of our dishes exceeds expectations before sending them to your door, putting the same care and attention into each plate as we would as if we were making them for our own families.
