At Smart N Local Food Corporation, taste is everything. We believe that real ingredients create real flavor, which is why we never use additives, preservatives, thickeners, or artificial flavors in our products.

Our sauces are crafted using traditional recipes with a modern touch—highlighting the richness of ripe tomatoes, the depth of slow-cooked meats, the creaminess of authentic Alfredo, and the perfect balance of our signature Rosée sauce. Every bite delivers the homemade taste and quality you’d expect from a fresh, handcrafted meal.

We started with a simple idea: food should taste as good as it looks—bold, fresh, and full of life. That’s why our pasta sauces are made with carefully selected ingredients, ensuring the perfect harmony of flavor, texture, and aroma in every jar.

From the first spoonful to the last, our taste speaks for itself—pure, delicious, and unforgettable.

At Smart N Local Food Corporation, we blend science and experience to create something truly exceptional.

Our journey began with a unique collaboration between an experienced chef and a mechanical engineer—merging culinary expertise with scientific precision to craft fresh, high-quality food without additives or preservatives.

Science has enabled us to innovate, preserving freshness and natural goodness, while experience has taught us that taste is everything. This powerful combination allows us to produce clean-label, ready-to-eat meals that are as wholesome as they are delicious.

Based in North Vancouver, BC, we proudly produce our BuyBC-certified sauces and meal solutions under our brand, A Very Good Pasta Sauce.

At Smart N Local, we believe great food comes from passion, expertise, and an unwavering commitment to quality—because every meal should be a fresh and flavorful experience!

At Smart N Local Food Corporation, our journey began with a shared passion for great food and quality ingredients.

With backgrounds in both culinary arts and engineering, we set out to solve a common challenge in the food industry—creating fresh, flavorful, and clean-label products without additives or preservatives.

We started in a small kitchen, handcrafting our first batches and perfecting our recipes. As demand grew, we moved into a commissary kitchen, expanding our production line while staying true to our commitment to quality. From there, we took our products to farmers' markets across BC, where people fell in love with our fresh, high-quality pasta sauces.

Today, A Very Good Pasta Sauce can be found in retail stores across BC, and we’re excited to continue expanding—soon, we hope to bring our products to stores all across Canada.

Proudly produced in North Vancouver, BC, our sauces are BuyBC certified and made with no added sugar, no preservatives, no thickeners, and no artificial ingredients—just real, wholesome food.

From a small kitchen to your table—fresh, local, and made with care.
