Canada’s thriving multicultural population and growing health awareness are fueling strong demand for natural dried fruits—and raisins top the list. Whether you're a food distributor in Toronto, a bakery chain in Montreal, or a wholesale retailer in Vancouver, buying raisins in bulk can open up big opportunities in 2025.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything: from current wholesale raisin prices, how to find reliable suppliers, and how to legally import raisins into Canada—especially high-quality Iranian raisins.

Why Raisins Are in Demand in Canada?

Raisins have secured their spot in Canadian homes, commercial kitchens, and retail stores because:

•    They’re natural sweeteners used in baking, granola, and cereals

•    Rich in fiber, antioxidants, and potassium

•    Appeal to both traditional and health-conscious consumers

•    Popular among South Asian, Middle Eastern, and European immigrant communities

Canada imports hundreds of tons of raisins annually, making it a strategic market for bulk dried fruit trade.
