Who We Are

As a Sales Agency, the IVMA is responsible for monitoring producer compliance to regulations as mandated by Provincial Legislation. In addition to these regulations, the Agency takes Food Safety and On Farm Food Safety inspections very seriously. We maintain an elaborate quality “recall and trace back” system that ensures only the highest quality produce is offered for sale. |

From March to November, the IVMA markets a variety of Greenhouse Tomatoes, Long English Cucumbers, and Bell Peppers under the Okanagan Hothouse™ brand.
With greenhouses primarily located in the sunny Okanagan Valley IVMA producers are well known for their high quality, greenhouse product. Our Tomatoes are a deeper red in colour and our Long English Cucumbers are a more intense green. |

Coupled with our other produce lines, the IVMA provides local and regional retailers & wholesalers the ability to stock “BC Grown” product year around.
