St. ALBANS, Vt.—Syrup cans, long popular in Quebec, are being promoted in the U.S.

They are appealing to consumers and make syrup very easy to ship for mail order businesses.

Some equipment is needed for sealing the cans. Dominion & Grimm dealers are the place to go for that.

These little cans first appeared in 1951 when the Quebec Ministry of Agriculture set up a drawing contest to promote their use.

The cans, then with a volume of 19 fluid oz, were a more convenient size for household use than the otherwise available tins with sizes varying from 1L to 4L.

Dominion and Grimm said it was excited to introduce them to US sugarmakers for the 2025 season.
