About Us
Toronto Biltong is a Toronto-based food company dedicated to introducing Canadians to the authentic taste and nutritional benefits of biltong.
We proudly craft our biltong by hand in Toronto, using premium beef sourced from Canadian farmers. We are committed to supporting the local economy while providing consumers with a high-quality, protein-packed snack alternative.
Our passion lies in crafting traditional biltong using time-honored methods, ensuring a product that is both delicious and wholesome. We believe that by offering a premium, Canadian-made biltong, we can not only satisfy the growing demand for healthier snack options but also prevent the Canadian market from being dominated by imported products.
Meet the founder, JP Meyer.
Born and raised on a South African farm with three brothers, I've always had a deep connection to the land. With a pioneer spirit and a love for adventure, I traded the vast plains for the bustling city lights, continuing my business studies in Canada.
My journey took me to the heartland, where I worked alongside my brother on one of Saskatchewan's largest organic grain farms. This experience solidified my agricultural roots. Yet, drawn to the vibrant energy of Toronto, I made the bold decision to start a new chapter here. With just my belongings and a pickup truck, I embraced the city's diverse spirit. Today, I'm a proud family man, exploring all that Ontario has to offer.
Inspired by my South African heritage, I'm excited to introduce a taste of home to the Toronto food scene. Our biltong is a celebration of tradition, crafted with the finest ingredients and a commitment to quality.
