Canada now accounts for 18.4% of North America's coffee pod and capsule revenue — not far off the US at 62.8%. That's a lot of single-serve volume for a market
The broader Canada coffee market sits at $24.5B in 2025, and pods are the fastest-growing format inside it, with a 4.8% CAGR projected through 2035. Private-label retail pods are pushing hard against Nespresso and Keurig-compatible brands on shelf.

We talk to exporters and brand teams every week, and the pattern holds: it's rarely the product that trips people up. It's one of three things. Regulation — certification, labelling, import rules that shift after you've…
