Episode Details

Chapman’s Ice Cream is boldly resisting U.S. tariffs by slashing American ingredient reliance—aiming to replace 70% of imports by mid-2027—while keeping dairy 100% Canadian and pledging not to raise prices until March 2028. They’re sourcing almonds and cherries from Australia and Chile, even partnering with a Canadian firm to make ice cream cones domestically, becoming the only Canadian ice cream maker with fully Canadian dairy and cones. Despite financial risk, experts say their price promise is feasible for their scale, requiring rigorous testing to maintain quality and affordability. This move is sparking a broader rethink among Canadian businesses about supply chain resilience and global sourcing opportunities.
