Farm Boy Inc. is a grocery retailer based in Ottawa, Ontario, focused on fresh, locally sourced foods. The company builds its assortment by hand-selecting produce daily from Ontario farms and partnering with local vendors, while also offering items from its own kitchen and a growing line of private-label products. Stores aim for a welcoming, service-oriented experience with staff ready to assist and no self-checkout. Founded in 1981 with a 300-square-foot produce shop in Cornwall, Farm Boy has grown to operate 52 locations across Ontario, maintaining a focus on quality, variety, and options for diverse dietary needs. The model combines farm-to-table sensibilities with locally sourced foods from Ontario makers and a private-label lineup of exclusive products. In June 2026, the company opened a new Ottawa location in the Findlay Creek neighborhood on Bank Street, reflecting ongoing expansion in the region.
