GOOD BIG NICE started in our home in Plateau Mont-Royal at the end of 2020.

Just the two of us, making kimchi by hand, with one pretty simple idea: kimchi should be an everyday grocery item.

Not niche. Not specialty. Not something you have to hunt down at a specific store.

We wanted really good, fresh kimchi that you could grab at your regular grocery store and actually use all the time - with rice, eggs, sandwiches, bowls, whatever.

 

As we grew, the challenge became figuring out how to make kimchi at a much bigger scale without turning it into a totally different product.

That led us to help develop one of the first SQF-certified kimchi productions in Canada, built to meet grocery standards while still making fresh, locally produced kimchi.
 

Today, we make kimchi for retail, foodservice, and industrial volumes for food manufacturers.

​

You can find GOOD BIG NICE in 850+ stores across Quebec, in restaurant kitchens, and increasingly as an ingredient in other food products.

We’ve grown a lot from making kimchi at home in the Plateau, but the idea is still pretty much the same:

make really good kimchi, and make it easy to get.
