and have a look at Sun-Brite who make Unico, Primo and several US brands and for dry soupls, there's several more listed at search result for soup at ManufacturedIn.CA
"Credit card payment systems." Interac (if you have the cash to spend at the time) "A marketplace like Amazon or Temu." Mavenfair.ca is a recent start-up in BC with a wholly Canadian product line FBM (fulfilled by merchant).
I'm in NS and I discovered a couple places in ON and westward that makes peanut butter. My plan, to purchase a case of 10 or 12 jars. Which I can no doubt consume myself in a year but will consider trading with neighbours for eggs or produce during summer time.
I did not know that. No refill stations around here. It's a 70km round trip just to the grocery store, only go bi-weekly. The jugs of Down East should do us about 6 months.
Technically speaking, there's no such thing as free shipping. It's built into the price, and for low dollar value items, the ship cost is spread out over other products in a merchant's business model. Whether its FBA (fulfilled by Amazon) or FBM (fulfilled by merchant), the merchant is the one paying the shipping, not Amazon. You can be sure though that Amazon is getting a smokin' hot deal from CanadaPost for that volume business. Just my guess, but CanPost is offsetting the lower profit margins for shipping Amazon's packages by charging more for smaller volume Canadian merchants who ship direct to the consumer.
