Pomme strives to provide gluten-free shoppers with as many options — and as much support — as possible to help them make the best choices for their lives, sticking to  fundamental ethical and nutritional values when deciding what makes it to their shelves.  Never hesitate to ask for information or advice while you shop!

Pomme researches every company they work with. Starting off with some simple no’s: no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners are allowed in our markets, beyond that  a focus on local and Canadian vendors, the uniqueness of products, the quality of ingredients, and the ethics of the companies. They listen to customers’ recommendations — to make sure we’re getting the best of the best!

Pomme Natural Market in Coquitlam

Pomme PoCo is our first and biggest Pomme! We offer the Tri-Cities a huge selection of ethically selected, super healthy groceries, certified organic produce, and excellent vitamins and supplements—as well as a wide range of natural home and kitchenware! We have a natural deli packed full of fresh, ready-to-eat meals, snacks and treats. We use the same top quality, organic and grass fed ingredients you’ll find in our aisles for our made-in-house deli foods.
