Built for clarity. Governed for trust.

MAPLE Score™ measures Canadian ingredient origin by ingoing weight. Participating products must substantiate the information they disclose.

Three requirements behind the mark.

Simple to understand. Controlled in application.

  • Measured consistently

    One product-specific percentage based on Canadian ingredient origin by ingoing weight.

  • Supported by evidence

    Relevant formulation, supplier-origin and processing-location records must substantiate the disclosure.

  • Controlled mark use

    Only qualifying products may display authorized MAPLE Score™ materials.

Controlled methodology

Calculation rules, rounding conventions and methodology versions are maintained through formal version control.

Audit-ready by design. The founding pilot is establishing the calculation rules, evidence requirements and version-control procedures needed for future independent verification. No external third-party audit or certification is currently represented.

Focused by design.

MAPLE Score™ is a voluntary private origin-transparency standard. It is not a government endorsement or a replacement for Canadian food-labelling requirements.

It measures Canadian ingredient origin.
