The Taste of Nova Scotia Quality Food Program is an association of local food producers and processors that focus on joint marketing initiatives.

By upholding Quality assurance standards, the association helps to associate members' products with quality in the eyes of the public.  Taste of Nova Scotia was launched in 1994 as a cooperative venture between Nova Scotia’s food industry and the Provincial Government.  The program participates in a variety of marketing activities to enhance the development of the food industry and its members.




Since the program was launched in 1994 we and our members have been building brand recognition of the Taste of Nova Scotia Quality Food logo.

Because quality is the single most important element in the program, we go out of our way to ensure that our member companies have Quality Assurance built into their day-to-day activities. In order to qualify for membership, prospective companies must demonstrate a commitment to continuous improvement through Quality Assurance documentation. They must also meet the current inspection/regulation/licensing requirements.
