About Us

Welcome to epicureal.com, an online fine food shop -- and the newest addition to the Qualifirst family of Canadian gourmet food companies. Since 1957, The Qualifirst Group has provided the highest quality food products to chefs and retailers across Canada.

Qualifirst travels the world to find high-quality products that home chefs and discerning foodies can now order from their desktops and have conveniently delivered to their doorsteps.

We offer hundreds of rare food items not normally carried in grocery stores, including wholegrain English mustard, smoked paprika from Spain and dark estate chocolate produced in France. There's also a selection of organic products and gourmet baskets for gift-giving. The recent introduction of Royal Command, Qualifirst’s own line of gourmet products, brings many more fine food products onto the mainstream marketplace.

Serving more than 1500 restaurants, 1000 retailers and hundreds of specialty shops, Qualifirst has grown from a small fine food company fifty years ago to the premier importer and distributor of gourmet foods in Canada today. With the addition of www.epicureal.com, Qualifirst enters a new era to allow you to buy gourmet items from your home and become your trusted one-stop source for all of your gourmet food needs.

We invite you browse our website and discover the many quality products we carry!
