Marathon Marketing is a Canadian food and packaging brokerage built on long-standing relationships, consistent execution, and a deep understanding of how Canadian retail works in practice. Serving a select group of successful clients for over 40 years.
Our team brings experience from a range of leading organizations, including Acosta Sales & Marketing, Coca-Cola, Lululemon, and Coast Mountain Dairy. This background informs a practical, grounded approach to sales, account management, and partnership development.
We support both branded and private label programs across national and regional grocery, foodservice, and wholesale channels. Our strength lies in hands-on account management, clear communication, and staying closely aligned with our partners as their businesses evolve.
We intentionally work with a limited number of clients. This allows us to stay involved at a meaningful level and provide practical guidance rather than surface-level representation. Many of our partnerships have developed through long-term relationships and industry referrals, reflecting the trust placed in our approach.
Marathon’s services include:
Introducing global grocery, non-food, and packaging suppliers to Canadian grocery, mass, and club markets
Supporting Canadian and International food, non-food and packaging manufacturers as they expand and build leading brand positions within the Canadian Market.
Our experience spans major Canadian retailers and distributors, with particular strength in Western Canada supported by coordinated National coverage. Beyond sales execution, we frequently support portfolio strategy, promotional timelines, spend management and supply chain coordination to ensure programs are viable, competitive, and sustainable.
Our role is to represent our partners as if their business were our own. We value transparency, long-term thinking, and delivering outcomes that make sense for both brands and retail partners.
We represent our clients across grocery, club, drug, discount, and select distributor channels in Ontario, Quebec, and Western Canada.
If Marathon Marketing looks like a good fit for your food or packaging organization, we welcome the opportunity to connect.
