The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has suspended the licence of Quebec-based grocery delivery and meal-kit service company GoodFood (FOOD).
The CFIA says that GoodFood’s “Safe Food for Canadians” (SFC) licence was suspended on Dec. 30, 2025.
According to the CFIA, the Montreal-based company isn’t allowed to conduct any activity for which the licence was issued.
The SFC licence is provided to businesses that import, export, or send food across provincial and territorial borders in Canada.
Reasons for an SFC licence to be suspended include:
• Failure to comply with the SFCA, the FDA and their related regulations
• Default of payment of any fee related to the licence
• Risk of injury to the public may result from continuing to conduct the licensed activity
While GoodFood’s operating license has been suspended, no food recalls associated with the company have been issued.
Management at GoodFood says there are no safety issues with the food its sells and that it can continue delivering food to Canadians, with some exceptions.
Management also said that they expect the license suspension to be resolved soon.
The CFIA said in its statement that if corrective measures aren’t taken by GoodFood within 90 days, the SFC licence can be cancelled.
The stock of GoodFood has fallen 98% in the last five years to trade at $0.34 per share in Toronto.
