Pure Maple co-founder comments on global syrup sales upsurge

The co-founder of Pure Maple has been talking to Canadian media in the wake of figures from Statistics Canada which show that maple syrup exports were up 17.2 per cent to $844.2 million in 2025.

Rob Ward was quizzed by the CBC news network on the rise in demand for pure Canadian maple syrup in the UK and Europe.

He suggested that a warm feeling towards Canadians from Brits has had an impact on demand for the authentic product that is inextricably linked to the North American country across the Atlantic.

Rob said:

“Consumers have taken on maple syrup in a good way. If I were to sum it up, there’s a fondness towards Canada and a real appetite towards Canadian maple syrup.”

There is thought to be a growing sentiment among buyers in the UK and beyond to prefer natural sweeteners like maple syrup as opposed artificial options.

At Pure Maple, we offer golden delicate, amber rich and dark robust maple syrup; covering a wide range of uses – from drizzling over morning pancakes to a moist sweetener for baking. We are also a distributor of dairy-free organic maple butter and maple cream cookies.

Bundles combining three main varieties are available to order online, with free shipping anywhere on the UK mainland. Stored in a cool, dry place in your kitchen, the product lasts for up to three years and up to 12 weeks once opened.

For large households or maple syrup lovers, there is a 1 litre jug of dark robust maple syrup on offer.
