OUR PHILOSOPHY

OFFER ONLY THE FRESHEST, HIGHEST QUALITY PRODUCTS AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICE.

THE OWNERS OF HIGHLAND COUNTRY MARKETS KNOW THEIR CUSTOMERS WELL – THEIR DIFFERENT TASTES, THE FOOD THEY GRAVITATE TOWARD. FRESH AND HOMEMADE IS AT THE SOURCE OF EVERYTHING HIGHLAND DOES, FROM THE MEAT PREPARED AND MASTERED BY ITS IN-HOUSE BUTCHERS, TO THE ALLURING SMELL OF OLIEBOLLEN (DUTCH DOUGHNUTS) AND APPLE FRITTERS THAT ARE BAKED EVERY SATURDAY FROM 10 A.M. TO 3 P.M.

"GOOD QUALITY PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE ARE OUR MANDATES," SAYS OWNER MARINUS DE JONGE.
THIS RETAIL FOOD STORE IS UNLIKE A TRADITIONAL GROCERY STORE. IT’S A COUNTRY MARKET WHERE ONLY THE FRESHEST MEAT, DELI ITEMS, FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND BAKED GOODS ARE SOLD. A NUMBER OF DAIRY, CHEESES AND COMPLEMENTARY GROCERIES ARE ALSO AVAILABLE.

MARINUS’ ROOTS ARE IN HOLLAND, WHERE HE EARNED HIS MASTER BUTCHER’S DIPLOMA. HIS UNCLES JOHN, MIKE AND BENNY DEJONGE CAME TO CANADA IN 1958 AND STARTED THE MEAT PROCESSING AND DISTRIBUTION COMPANY CALLED HIGHLAND PACKERS. MARINUS, HIS WIFE JANNEKE AND FOUR CHILDREN – FRED, NICK, JANET AND EDWIN – WENT INTO THE FAMILY BUSINESS IN 2005, ALL OF WHICH ARE NOW MARRIED, FRED’S WIFE ERIN, AND NICK'S WIFE TAYLOR HAVE ALSO JOINED THE BUSINESS. NOW, THE FOURTH GENERATION IS ACTIVE IN THE BUSINESS, CONTINUING TO HONOUR THE FAMILY’S ROOTS THAT GO BACK TO HOLLAND WHERE IT ALL STARTED IN THE VILLAGE OF BRESKENS IN 1919.
TODAY, THE DE JONGE FAMILY IS CONTINUING THE FAMILY REPUTATION FOR PROVIDING ONLY THE BEST FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS AND CLIENTS.

HIGHLAND PACKERS AND HIGHLAND COUNTRY MARKETS OFFER DIVERSE FOODS FEATURING MANY FLAVOURS OF THE WORLD, OFFERING HIGH QUALITY BEEF, PORK, LAMB, GOAT AND POULTRY, AS WELL AS HIGHLAND’S OWN DELI PRODUCTS PRODUCED IN THEIR OWN SAUSAGE KITCHEN. ‘FARM FRESH’ IS WHAT HIGHLAND IS ALL ABOUT.

“ALWAYS STRIVING FOR BETTER WAYS TO SERVE, WE WISH TO CONTINUE TO MEET OUR CUSTOMERS’ NEEDS,” SAYS MARINUS WHO, THANKS TO THE MARKET’S CONNECTION TO HIGHLAND PACKERS, CAN OFFER THE GREATEST ASSURANCE OF SELLING ONLY HIGH QUALITY, FRESH, AGED, GOVERNMENT INSPECTED CANADIAN MEATS.

MOST OF THE MARKET’S MEAT PRODUCTS COME DIRECTLY FROM HIGHLAND PACKERS, WHICH IS ADJACENT TO THE RETAIL STORE. THIS CONNECTION SETS HIGHLAND COUNTRY MARKETS APART FROM ITS COMPETITORS.

WE HAVE THE ULTIMATE IN FOOD SAFETY, AS "GOVERNMENT INSPECTORS ARE ON THE PREMISES WHENEVER HIGHLAND PACKERS IS OPERATING,” SAYS MARINUS. AND IT’S ASSURANCE FOR THE DEJONGE’S THAT THEY ARE SELLING QUALITY BEEF, VEAL, PORK, LAMB AND GOAT PRODUCTS. A DEDICATED POULTRY DEPARTMENT IS A FURTHER GUARANTEE OF OUTSTANDING QUALITY.

‘HIGHLAND’S OWN SMOKEHOUSE PROCESSES ITS FAMOUS NATURAL SMOKED HAMS, BACON, GOURMET WIENERS AND DELICATESSEN MEATS.

THE PHILOSOPHY AT HIGHLAND COUNTRY MARKETS IS SIMPLE: OFFER ONLY THE FRESHEST, HIGHEST QUALITY PRODUCTS AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICE.

“COUNTRY FRESH IS OUR MOTTO AND WE STAND BY IT,” MARINUS SAYS
