Cardinal Meats Marks 60 Years as a Canadian Protein Industry Leader

Cardinal Meats proudly marks its 60th anniversary this year, celebrating six decades of growth, innovation and high-quality products.

Founded in 1966, Cardinal Meats has grown from a regional processor into a nationally respected supplier, best known for its signature beef burgers, and fully cooked products that have become staples in Canadian restaurants and households. The company, still family owned and operated, has built its reputation on delivering consistent quality at scale--earning long-standing partnerships with major national retailers and foodservice operators.

"This anniversary is about much more than a number," said Brent Cator, President and Owner, Cardinal Meats. "It represents 60 years of building Cardinal Meats as a brand Canadians recognize for quality burgers and trusted protein products--and more than 100 years of family experience in the meat industry that continues to shape how we operate today."
