[3][1] Bulk Barn Foods Limited was founded by Carl Ofield in September 1982.

In partnership with Leo Burnett Design, Bulk Barn was modernized with a new bold logo, colours, store front, and in-store signage.

Although Bulk Barn is not a zero-waste store, they have been moving towards more sustainable shopping methods.

The program was paused over the COVID-19 pandemic due to restrictions, but was reintroduced across the chain in collaboration with local health units.

Bulk Barn regularly has in store sales, coupons, and savings for students and seniors.
