Strategically located at the crossroads to the Asia-Pacific marketplace, B.C’s beverage processors are uniquely positioned to supply markets across Canada, the United States and Asia.
British Columbia produces craft-brewed ciders, beers and spirits – including whiskey and vodka – and has long been recognized for their award-winning wines. Although British Columbia's wine industry has traditionally focused on supplying the strong domestic market, increased demand for high-quality B.C. wines in Asia has led to a substantial rise in exports. B.C. icewines – produced from grapes naturally frozen on the vine before harvest – are gaining international attention as some of the highest quality dessert wines in the world.
