How it works

How an order comes together

1

Tell us about your family

Take the 2-minute survey. Tell us who you feed, what you spend on groceries each week and the cuts you like. We use your answers to draft a starting plan.

2

Talk with a Food Planner

The consult is free, by phone or at your kitchen table. Your Food Planner already has your survey, so the call goes straight to how your family eats.

3

Get your quote in writing

We go through the plan item by item and you change whatever you like, down to how each cut is packed. You get the quote in writing. When you’re ready, you sign online. Nothing is ordered until you do.

4

We deliver on our own truck

Tell us the timing you’d prefer. The office books the date against our route and confirms it with you. Our driver carries the order in. Before your plan ends, we call to talk about the next one.

About us

When you call Shopease,
this is who answers.

Shopease Foods has fed Ontario families since 1984. Since 2018 it has been owned by the Gunsolus family: Steve, his partner Meghan and their daughters Scotland, Margo and Eva. We’re the third family to run it.

We work out of a warehouse on Rye Street in Peterborough. Our Food Planners sit down with families and plan their orders, the office books the deliveries, and our own drivers bring them. The people who answer the phone work in the same building.

Our reviews mention our team by name. Once you order with us, you’ll know them too.

Frequently asked questions

Where do you deliver?

Across Ontario, on routes that run out of our Peterborough warehouse. Text your postal code to (705) 304-0080 and we’ll tell you if we reach your address.

What happens at the free consult?

Your Food Planner asks about your family, the food you like and what you spend on groceries. You build the order together and get the quote in writing to think over. There’s no obligation to buy.

Can I choose exactly what's in my order?

Yes. Every order is built item by item with you from our full catalogue. There’s no preset box.

Can you cut and package the meat the way I want?

Yes. Steak thickness, roast size and pack sizes are up to you. Your instructions are written on the order, and it’s cut the way your family wants.

How does payment work?

Your Food Planner builds the order around your grocery budget. You choose weekly, bi-weekly or monthly payments, or pay in full. Payment plans come through our financing partners or our own in-house financing. Some families qualify for 0% financing. All plans are on approved credit, and not everyone qualifies. You see all of it in writing before you sign.

Is the pricing competitive with the grocery store?

We build the order around what you already spend on groceries, and the aim is a better quality of food within that budget. Your unit prices are locked for 36 months from the day you sign. Your Food Planner will walk through it with your own numbers.

What if something isn't right?

Tell us within 14 days of delivery and we replace any item that doesn’t suit your family. That’s our Perfect-Fit Promise. Everything we deliver also carries a 12-month quality guarantee.

Do I need a big freezer?

Not always. Your Food Planner tailors the order to the freezer space you have, and we may bring it in more than one delivery. If you want more room, we sell chest and upright freezers at our cost.

Who delivers my order?

Our own driver, on our own truck. They carry the order in and put it where you want it.

Can I add brand-name groceries to my order?

Yes. Campbell’s soups, pasta, Primo sauces, cereal, baking staples, frozen vegetables and household items can all go on the same order.

What if I want to change something after I order?

Call us. Items can often be swapped after you order, and your Food Planner will tell you what can change.

Is there any pressure to buy at the consult?

No. The consult and the quote are free, and you decide in your own time. Your quote is good for 14 days.

Let’s plan your family’s order.
