True Earth Packaging delivers wholesale food packaging to Richmond's restaurants, dim sum houses, bakeries, bubble tea shops, and caterers. From the No. 3 Road dining corridor to Steveston Village, we supply the packaging that keeps Richmond's food industry running.
Richmond has one of the highest restaurant densities per capita in Canada. The No. 3 Road corridor — from Lansdowne north to Bridgeport — is home to hundreds of restaurants ranging from Hong Kong-style dim sum houses and Cantonese BBQ restaurants to Japanese ramen shops, Taiwanese bubble tea chains, and international bakeries. The volume and variety of packaging needs in this stretch alone is remarkable.
Dim sum operations in particular have distinct packaging requirements: soup dumplings need containers that maintain heat without steam buildup, individual takeout portions often go in small clear PET clamshells or compartment trays, and orders for the full table require a variety of sizes in a single order. True Earth Packaging carries the range of containers that dim sum and Chinese restaurant operations need — not just a one-size-fits-all container box.
Steveston Village represents a different side of Richmond's food market: seafood-focused restaurants, fish-and-chip shops, ice cream parlours, and artisan food vendors who serve a tourist and local crowd that increasingly expects eco-friendly packaging. Businesses along Steveston's waterfront have been early adopters of compostable and sugarcane bagasse packaging — and we've been the supplier behind a number of those transitions.
Richmond's many Asian bakeries — producing everything from egg tarts and bolo buns to French-style pastries and custom cake orders — are some of our most consistent customers. Bakery containers, cake boxes, pastry bags, and portion cups are staple reorders for Richmond's baking community.

A high-volume Richmond dim sum restaurant goes through far more packaging per week than an independent café. Our case quantities are sized appropriately for different scales of operation — you don't overpay by buying more than you'll use.
