Maple Syrup Suppliers - Wholesale & Bulk

Canada and the USA account for nearly 100% of global maple syrup production, with Quebec managing 73% of world supply through the FPAQ federation. Nutrada connects you with GFSI-certified maple syrup manufacturers from both regions, filterable by grade and MOQ.

Maple Syrup Types and Forms

Since 2017, all pure maple syrup uses the harmonized Grade A system with four colour classes:

All liquid forms require minimum 66 Brix sugar content and 100% pure maple sap with no additives.

Maple Syrup Origin and Supply

Canada produces approximately 73% of global maple syrup, with Quebec controlling 90% of Canadian output through the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers strategic reserve system.

This concentrated supply creates price stability but requires advance ordering during the February-April harvest window. USA production centers in Vermont, New York, and Maine supply the remaining market share, with Vermont leading domestic output at higher production costs than Quebec operations.

The annual harvest depends entirely on weather patterns - temperatures must rise above freezing during the day while staying below freezing at night, creating a 4-6 week collection period that varies by location and climate conditions.

Bulk Maple Syrup

Maple syrup must be stored below 25 degrees Celsius to prevent crystallization and maintain 18-24 month shelf life. Standard bulk packaging uses 205L steel drums or 18.9L food-grade pails, with larger buyers accessing tanker truck deliveries. Check the Brix level on each batch CoA - anything below 66 degrees violates regulatory standards and shortens shelf life significantly.

Organic Maple Syrup

Quebec and Vermont maintain the deepest organic maple syrup supply, with producers holding dual USDA NOP and EU Organic certification for export flexibility. Ontario organic producers typically focus on domestic Canadian markets with single-country certification.

Maple Syrup Private Label

Consumer packaging formats include glass bottles, plastic jugs, squeeze bottles, and portion control sachets from 50ml to 1L retail sizes. Private label MOQs start higher than bulk orders due to custom bottle procurement and labeling setup. Buyers must specify the target grade before production - Golden and Amber grades command retail premiums while Dark and Very Dark suit cost-focused private label strategies.

Maple Syrup Manufacturers

Canadian manufacturers cluster in Quebec and Ontario with integrated tapping, processing, and export capabilities, while US producers operate smaller-scale facilities serving regional and specialty markets. Request batch-specific CoAs showing Brix levels, pH readings, and isotope analysis results to verify pure maple content. Nutrada lists GFSI-certified maple syrup suppliers from Canada and the USA, covering liquid, crystallized, and cream formats across conventional and organic supply. All orders are placed directly with certified suppliers, with no intermediary.
