About MAPLE & MAIN
MAPLE & MAIN is a Canadian local discovery and commerce network that helps shoppers find products, businesses, farms, creators, professional services and travel operators that are Canadian-owned, made in Canada or Indigenous-owned. The platform pairs a searchable directory and barcode scanner with an AI shopping assistant, local weather and fuel-price widgets, a national deals rail, civic and education guides, and the MAPLE & MAIN Edit magazine. Every listing carries a transparent Canadian Score™. Browsing is free for shoppers; businesses join on a bespoke monthly membership starting at $99 CAD, with no commission on referred sales.
The platform today
What started as a directory is now a network. The main surfaces, for context in coverage:
Local discovery & commerce
Storefronts, product catalogues, farms, makers and travel operators across all thirteen provinces and territories, each carrying a transparent Canadian Score™.
Deals & coupons
A national deals rail where member businesses publish offers, coupons and seasonal promotions directly to nearby shoppers.
Ask MAPLE
A grounded shopping assistant that answers in plain language from live listings, with honest no-match answers instead of guesses.
Today, near you
Local weather, fuel and EV-charging prices and live transit arrivals on the homepage, tuned to the visitor's city with clear source and update times.
Budget meals and planners
Meals, weekly Canadian grocery baskets and $10 meals by budget and household size, with calorie estimates and diabetic-friendly picks, plus budget planners for kids programs, cellar outings and seasonal activities.
The Canadian Cellar
Licensed micro-breweries, distilleries, cideries and wineries with tasting-room details, shoppable listings and province-by-province browsing.
Travel rails
Stays, tours, operators and experiences that put Canadian regions in front of visitors planning a trip.
Professional services directory
Discovery-only listings for regulated professions, with verification against the relevant regulator and clear disclaimers.
Government, civic & education guides
Task-oriented, source-backed guides that point Canadians to the right official page, plus school and campus discovery.
Creators & the Edit
A vetted creator directory with shoppable picks, plus the MAPLE & MAIN Edit magazine with bylined stories and shoppable rails.
Partner network
Chambers of commerce, BIAs, associations and creators can partner with revenue-share referrals, tracked through one attribution engine.
